Discussing a book:

Me: 'Is he American?'

Mrs Hill 'No, I don't think so, he lives in America but I think it says his Grandfather was a Jew.'

Me: '..........................'

 

You’re a very enlightened Cowden fan, letting your wife read.

She’s watching one of her programmes on catch up. Some legal based drama set in Dublin. 

‘Oh, they’ve got funny number plates on their cars!”

”Yes, Ireland is a foreign country?”

””Since when?!?!”

More chronic Facebook patter from her again the other day.

She showed me a post that said Brian Conley was joining Eastenders and said 'ooh, you might like this'. I asked 'why?' to which she stared blankly for a few seconds and said, 'oh, wait, that's Billy Connolly eh?'. There was even a photo of Brian Conley too FFS.

Wrong on so many levels.

The Light of my Life has a video conference call once a week. This is new ground for her but (I thought) she was coping well enough. Until she told me it was frustrating because sometimes the link her counterpart distributes "is for Chrome" but other times "it's on Safari". I've asked her if this varies depending on which device she's using when she clicks on the link but no evidence of pennies dropping yet.

She also appears to think that 'Google' is synonymous with 'The Internet' but maybe she's not so far wrong there.
