I have an idea for a new thread...

[PhilipV]

well she read the whatsapp post, but did not reply ... whatever that means

Don't worry, it's fine.

[Hairy]

I kid you not, my wife has smacked me awake at some ghastly hour to tell me I must stop breathing...

 

She also seems to know precisely when I have had enough beer...i.e. the second one is always enough.

 

When I am braaing, I am always burning the meat. This is the same meat she eats and then declares that "she can't justify going to a restaurant for a steak, as this is much tastier than restaurant steak." Without fail. Every time.

 

I did however draw the line at pink shirts. I just refused when she tried. She pouted. I threatened to leave her. She relented. It's been 20 years, and we are still happy.

I'm also still ahead on the pink shirt thing .......... wait a bit........now that I think about it........I suppose that is just because she doesn't like or wear pink herself!  OK, I'll just count it as a minor win!

Does this mean you compromised and bought the salmon coloured shirt instead?

[Swany05]

Mate of mine rocked up to a braai in a pink shirt. We were like wtf is that. He tried as hard as he could to convince us it was salmon but he failed. BUT he did say something that kept most(probably all) of us quite. He said well how many of you are guaranteed action tonight for wearing your manly coloured shirts. Clearly he folded for another reason.

HAHA. I was watching a program this weekend about house hunting for bargains. She wanted to spend $200k. He wanted to spend $500k. They bought for $197k.

that is called a win win situation

He probably left the braai early as well.

He went to the braai for one reason and one reason only ... to brag.

I can honestly and unequivocally say "NO"...I am not, nor will I ever be, a fan of pink,both the colour and it's associations, nor the singer..
