An 18-month lock-in mobile phone contract with a very expensive network?

WingedVictory · 17/10/2009 20:48

Well, that's fraud, but you might find it fun to think about! As for actually doing, what sort of money do you want to spend?

Haunty27 · 17/10/2009 21:58

Lol

An ironing board
A lawn mower
A pass to leisure centre for weekly swimming etc for him and dcs

And some books:
'How to Lose Friends and Alienate People'
'Catcher in the Rye'
'Women are from Venus...'

etc

A sense of humour, some manners, a cookery book so he can stop feeding the kids junk!

QueenOfFrighteningEveryone · 18/10/2009 20:43

A pair of scissors so he can cut the cord between him and his mummy.

Or perhaps that book, How To Win Friends And Influence People.

Leslaki · 18/10/2009 20:44

Even more hilarious - a framed photo of me and xh on our wedding day for his NW!!!! And the video - I could even put it on dvd blu ray hd or whatever fancy system he has now!!Forsaking all others - until death do us part...

aseriouslyblondemoment · 18/10/2009 22:11

sounding good ladies!
a few more....
a calendar to remind him of when he has the dcs.
a watch which delivers electric shock reminds him of when he should collect/drop-off
shoe polish,brush and washing powder so he can manage to have clean school clothes when he drops them back to you at bedtime on a sun
oh and above watch includes extra shock alarm to remind him to make sure that all homework is done instead of you frantically scrabbling thru book bags on a sun night
