Dear Angelina


My lovely OH says that she suspect me of seeing someone else. I have, of course, and it 'REALLY HURTS' to know that this is having a detrimental effect on our relationship.


have to confess that for the past three months I prioritised my efforts to Wellingtons. I have renewed my membership at Brooklands Museum and I volunteer in the Barnes Wallis hanger where 'R' for Robert Wellington bomber is on display.


Can my relationship with the OH be restored or will I have to give up the lovely Wimpey? 


Yours, Feathery thing.

Re: If you can't beat them......

Your fascination with spending so much of your time in draughty hangars in Wellingtons is probably too kinky for any sane, level-headed woman to understand

brilliant! a sub-sub-forum to the "odd-ball off-topic" sub-forum.  For the really weird stuff.


Penguin, re the step ladder leaving  - I think you need to join AA.  I believe they have a twelve-step programme which may be of assistance.

Hi,

That leaves me with a strange mental impression - a penguin trying to climb a step-ladder...

Cheers,

Cofnchtr.
