    Mrs Tango (aka the Fiery One) sent this on http://www.iamintothis.com/2015/05/living-with-mamil-middle-aged-men-in.html

    Actually fun and I sprayed my screen with coffee when I read
    The shopping habits of a MAMIL is very secretive let alone expensive.There are many occasions where he will be wearing something new and he comes out with the classic line "This?! No, I bought it a year ago."

    A friday laugh

    No MAMIL buys their running trainers straight off the shelf, no no no.....they have to travel across the country to see a running specialist. They get their running gait filmed whilst jogging on a treadmill and assessed for the correct running shoes to support their precious feet. And you can bet your life those £150 Mizunos were the only pair suitable :cool:

    That is SOO wrong!!


    Everyone knows a real running specialist doesn't use treadmills. But I do like the across country bit :)

    Actually reminds me of a local guy (P you know him) who took a stock of bags from me to help condition his wife to the idea of sneaky purchases. She got used to him walking in with a bag after clearing the 'rubbish from the car' every now and then and didn't notice the odd bit of gear that came in with him :D
