No? This. We've got one of those credit card accounts where we get a few hundred quid a year back on it. We pay for everything using the credit cards and have it set up that they get cleared off every month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 This is all a bit strange - I seem to be in agreement with the various Rangers fans on here. We've got separate accounts and a joint account which we both have standing orders to pay in to cover bills including the credit card. We're fortunate in being able to pay off the credit card bill in full each month so also use one of the cash back versions. It might sounds a bit odd but stems from when I moved in with her and working from one account seemed a step too far. Works for us - if she wants to spend money on handbags and I want to spend silly amounts to watch Motherwell then we can't complain as long we can pay our way. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No? This is 100% the correct answer as to how it should be done. As for my ranting today, new couches got delivered this morning. These are the couches that she picked, that she’s now decided she doesn’t like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Christmas coming up soon and I am clueless as to what to get her. She has (as far as I am aware) dropped no hints. Having run out of patience I asked her outright. Anything she wants? "No". Anything she needs? "No". Anything she ever remotely likes the idea of? "No". And then she hit me with "I'm fine. Just don't bother getting me anything". Oh no you don't. Not falling for that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, if it wasn’t for the fact that you can’t buy her shoes, you’d be in good (their favorite bleeding item and don’t you dare get any she hasn’t specifically asked for). Consider something like a nice wee bracelet with an engraved charm, and have the date you met her engraved on it. Mucho points, impossible to hate and simple to do (if you’ve paid attention). 3 hours ago, MONKMAN said: Couch update - she actually likes the couches she chose, now that she’s had 24 hours to get used to them.

Busta Nut Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Anyone ever seen that program "The Hit List" ? It's a show about music/music intros. That small description indicates that you clearly need to listen (or be able to hear) the show. I don't think I need to tell you what goes on as I try to watch it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just think it’s ok to interrupt what others are doing whenever they see fit, because whatever they want is very important. It doesn’t work the other way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Lastnight, she phoning her maw from the car..... Maw answered and nothing could be heard. Pair of them continued to dial eachother with silence coming through the phone and the wife shouting CAN YE HEAR ME!!!! repeatedly before hanging up and trying again. A phone call rally of about 5 each before eventually a connection is established..... Then both of them give it "dont know what happened there, that was really weird" before the maw offers "its cloudy here maybe its that" and the wife responds with "aye probably, although I didnt really have any signal so thats probably not helping either"FML 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
