    On the plane back to Ireland at the moment. Taking off soon and it looks like I have the whole row to myself. Happy days!

    Edit: another bus turned up... crap

    Edit2: still have the whole row!

    I'm in the enviable position of hating my job and working right through to the summer. So not jealous at all.

    I love when that happens. The extra leg/knee room, the extra elbow room, the ability to let one go free of guilt, pick yer nose if you need to...
    Bliss!

    Couples buy each other Christmas cards?

    I have a present too, and I've just went and bought another card in the shop, but the one I ordered was nicer.

    Is this not the done thing? We've always bought christmas cards for each other.

    Never gotten the wife a Christmas card but then I don't get anyone Christmas cards. Pointless chore I can live without.

    My wife and I buy cards for each other too, but then she's a big Christmas person. The cards are easy. The presents are the things that cause me the most hassle. Yet another opportunity to get the perfect present or another opportunity to get it wrong. :(

    If you're stuck molloy, women love Michael Kors handbags. They can never have enough handbags.

    We're not meant to encourage that behaviour awec! :D

    I can't really give out to my wife about it, I probably have more clothes and shoes than she does.

    But what if it doesn't go with your outfit? Or you need a dressier one? Or you need a clutch bag for special occasions? What about when it's summer time?

    I'd tell you to hand in your man card somewhere, but it looks like you did that a long time ago.....

    It's my work bag I tend not to use handbags outside of work.

    If I need a bag for a special occasion I buy some cheap thing and give it away after.

    That's just a list of excuses his OH has used to justify buying more bags :pac:

    Any time I ask my wife does she not have enough handbags she always brings up me buying xbox games.

    Wife: "But you bought FIFA last year and this year!"

    awec: "Yea, cause it's a new game"

    wife: "And this is this years bag!"
