This from my MIL over the weekend. We had gone to Cowal for the weekend and on Sunday drove from Tighnabruich to Dunoon. We were passing through a patch of woodland which was obviously part of a shooting estate. MIL drove slowly due to the number of suicidal birds flying/running across the road in front of us. At one point a male peacock strutted out into

Is there any other kind?

Mrs has a habit of asking me how stuff works before it’s even out of the packaging but has progressed to general knowledge stuff too. Last night she asked “who made Boney M’s costumes?”. 

 

She probably thinks you designed them.

I've noticed my wife asking me this a lot recently -

"What should I say back to *person*?"

Without actually telling me what they've said in the first place.  3 times this week she's done this.

My wife does that too. She seems to forget that she's the one who has actual social skills while I'm an anti-social IT professional. How the hell should I know what to say?

I've just spent the best part of ten minutes explaining to Maw Sanchez how Eurovision voting works.

Each country gets 1 to 12 points.

Yes.

Those are based on the jury votes.

Yes.

So how does the public give them 1 point or 200 points?

Each country's public votes are scored in the same way as the jury votes, then added together and announced at once.

Cue at least four goes of me saying the same thing before it goes in.

I don't understand. And you are too interested in Eurovision.
