Don't burn yourself out. Maybe working from home would be the better option. Shouldn't interfere with your current P&B duties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask do you want me to come get you knowing town will be mental. No says she I wont be late I'll get the bus home. Just got a text asking 'Can you come get me and drop my pal off in Chapelhall' (Which is not even close to being on the way) I tell her not a chance I'll be doing that. Now blanking me. It'll be fun when she eventually gets home....... Count yourself lucky that she was kind enough to give you the heads up. Usually it's just a "Can you pick me up?" which you happily go and do, but when you get there you notice her standing on the pavement with a pal. "Could you just give Clare a lift home on the way?" is the first question you're asked, which has been asked full in the knowledge that you won't say "No, f**k off" when Clare is standing like a spare p***k waiting for the lift that your Mrs has clearly already promised her. This more often than not also involves either a trip through the 24 hour McDonalds drive thru or a stop outside a kebab shop, neither of which you agreed to when you first accepted the job. All in what should have been a 10 minute drive is now an hour long kerfuffle. I should note that some of my male friends are excruciatingly bad for this too, if not worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomintroll Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Actually in Scandinavia they do burn a lot of it. They're sufficiently rational people the NIMBY argument doesn't work.Apparently the Danish have to import rubbish for their incinerator to keep it going at an optimum level, quite a striking building just outside Copenhagen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, women can and do drag these sort of stories out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesP_81 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 My wife loves the guessing game. Guess who did ........? Guess how much I saved? Guess who I met today?I usually reply to these kind of games with ridiculous hyperbole that seems to take the wind out of her guessing game sails for a while at least.

Hedgecutter Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) Staggering back home through the door at 7pm, having become absolutely smashed (and from the sounds of things, sick ) after her works Xmas lunch. Bloody lightweight. Eta: No doubt she'll want nothing to eat after I postponed planning dinner until she got home.

BFTD Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The guessing game can be useful for test purposes too."Guess who I saw today?""The ex-boyfriend you think I don't know you cheated on me with?"*chokes on beverage*Try it; it's fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Her and her best pal don’t text each other, instead they send voice notes. Very annoying when your trying to watch something and you hear her pals stupid voice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
