    I've challenged hubby on holiday:
     " when did you get that new shirt?" 
    " I've had it ages, you've seen me wear it before" 
    " Oh really didn't I mention the label hanging from the hem last time?"

    It was so much easier when I didn't work from home and got everything delivered to the office :|
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    My husband is like that with books: "Oh, this old thing? I've had it for months."😇
     Yeh. Right.😐

    That was my Mum's favourite line to my Dad.

    I’ve been thinking that our olive tree might need repotting soon and today Francis took the decision for me. But I’m not grateful - he did not have to smash the expensive terracotta pot in reaching that conclusion.

    Oh 'eck @BenCotto is it that bad over there?  We'd better give OH's mum a ring ... she's not that far from you ...

    Really?  Are we marching on Downing Street?  Just wait while I get my mask, measuring stick and placard ( shall I add a full stop just for mischievousness?) and I'll be there!
