minor things that make you fume

mate, what is it about this woman/people that means you can't just say no? I mean, not going to the concerts is something you will regret for the rest of your life, something you will resent your in-laws for forever, and potentially even your wife. Neither of you want to go on holiday anyway - why can't you just say no? UNless you've already spent the money, in which case I see the problem, but the root cause is not saying no in the first place.

You have my sympathy's anyway. I can't stand my in-laws either, which is why I learned to say no

If only it were that easy.

If my missus said " No " to hers, her mum would take to her bed, pretend to be ill and her dad would be on the phone, telling her all about how she`s made her mum ill and that they won`t be around much longer.

As much as I hate to say it, sometimes you just have to bite the bullet.

I`ve got my own little ways at winding mine up.

Such as, every thing they do involves getting pissed, no matter what time of day. I don`t touch a single drop, as I know how much it winds them up ;)
 
According to the Radio Times, this weeks Celebrity Masterchef contains :

'The final quintet of famous faces - Jay Blades, Lisa Maxwell, A J Pritchard, Stella Parton and Clare Amfo.'

I've never heard of any of them. In what way are any of them celebrities ? Is it me ? Am I alone in not knowing who they are ?

I don't know any of them but I'm coming to terms with the fact that as I get older I just get further out of touch. Celebs or not I've never quite understood the appeal of watching people cook on TV.
 
Was at doctor on Friday and nurse checked my weight ( gone up) and my height. I have shrunk 2 inches over the years. Wtf. Where does the height go.

same here mate, I was 6'1 and a half now im just on 6ft

I think personally my spine is bending as I get older, coz my stance when still is awful as a result, looks like an S from the side haha

im only 31 too, god help me

well I don't speak to my family anymore as ive mentioned quite often before, and I prefer the Mrs family to my Mrs herself (its one of her plus points, sound family) so im all good in them situations haha

sorry to brag
 


sitting down in a restaurant having not scanned the menu beforehand and realising this is going to be way more expensive than you imagined it might be.

Went to Hawskmoor in Spitalfields in London the other week, ,my mate booked the table for us and our ladies, said it was great steak...so I at least expected a bit pricey and I don't mind once in a while paying decent money for a meal if its worth it. However we sat down and within a few seconds of seeing the menu I knew it was going to be second mortgage time. The food was very nice but we only had a main each and a bottle of wine per couple and it was £125 per couple...and tbh I left hungry. Daylight robbery ...yet the place was packed out!

Peer pressure and not wanting to look a minge bag, stops you from walking out mate.

My missus likes the sort of places, but wants me to pay for us to go there.

The reason being, is so that she can tell her mates that she`s been there.

The last time we went to a place like that ( some anniversary ), I asked the waiter if it was okay to pay with diamonds.

Needless to say, we normally end up in the curry house ;)
