I told my wife I'd start making tea as soon as I'd finished the college work I've been working on just now. Instead I'd been looking at something on TMP. In she walks to offer to start making it herself …. I jumped so high I nearly fell off the chair. LOL. |

A guilty start is better than a shameful finish. I guess. |

My partner does that. She offers to make me a cup of tea. But I know full well that she'll get distracted and in half an hour I'll have to go and make it myself. Moral. Just make it yourself anyway. At least you'll get it sooner. |

Was it a nice offer? or a hint that you were not already making the tea but that you should have? |

Patrick – It was a nice offer but she was a bit cross at tea. I think I need to earn some brownie points. She's due back from yoga any second so I'm going to make her a nice cup of coffee rather than spending any more time here. |

Aubrey – flowers for no specific reason will earn brownie points. A foot rub, back rub, etc will also earn many brownie points. Especially while watching the telly. |

Thanks for all the advice ! I actually need extra brownie points at the moment. I'm trying to persuade her I need to buy some more figures. Before anyone says keep your hobby spending secret she is the Chancellor of Exchequer in our house (through mutual agreement – I can't get my head round managing a budget) and she keeps a tight ship. Cheers Aubrey. |
