Is it ladies in general, or my wife in particular who seems not to share my humour.

We were looking through the front window the other day when my wife saw a large bird hovering in the sky before landing near the house (the bird, not my wife).

She said that it looked a bit hunched over. I asked what the time was and OH said dinner time

I suggested that the way her cooking had been recently the bird was a vulture waiting for the victims of the meal.

I quite enjoyed my stay in hospital :-D :-D

your wife is a saint putting up with you :-D

because she does not share your humour does not mean she has none :-D

maybe she doesn't think its funny to have to go though your list of 100 favourite sauces for guinea pig :-D nothing wrong with that. :-D

give the poor woman a break <3

The reason I asked the question was that when woke up in the hospital I saw through misty vision my GP. he said that I looked as though I had been hit by a bus.

I explained what had happened and he gave a sort of cynical smile. He told me that he said something similar to his wife.

And that's how we came to be on the same ward together :-D :-D :-D

And cooking in general, Mersey. Nothing Cordon Bleu but I certainly wouldn't starve to death. I prefer to make 'one pot' meals :-)

being hit by a bus reminded me of something :-D :-D :-D


a female pedestrian was found dead on a road - police not sure who she was but after some enquiries they headed to what they believed was her home armed with a photograph of her - man answered the door - they showed him the photograph and he confirmed it was his wife - looks like she's been hit by a bus they said - I know he replied, but she was good with the kids :-D :-D

Allan!

Ofcourse your missus has a sense of humour....... she lives with you!

She needs one.

That's what I tell my OH :-D


:-D :-D :-D @ AnnCardiff's story

LadyScozz

Unfortunately, whilst it may say lots about her sense of humour, it positively SHOUTS about her lack of taste, whereas mine is impeccable!

OH married me, I married her :-D :-D :-D

I'm quite sure that I got the better deal :-D :-D

I think you might get along with my OH Allan.......he likes living dangerously too!! :-)

A couple of examples............when I was standing in the shower I caught him peering at me with a smile on his face. 'What are you looking at?' I asked, thinking I must have a bruise. 'I'm looking for the "best before" date' was his answer!!

Recently I decided I need to exercise more and my old cross trainer has developed a horrendous screech. I was trying to work out what might be causing it and his verdict was 'perhaps it's in pain!. :-S
