    Here's a related tip for the Gents

    Do you find that the missus always hates everything you choose for her?
    If so, then when shopping together always go and find the most expensive items of clothing or shoes or whatever she's looking for. Tell her how much you like them and how good she'll look in them.

                  After getting an ear hole bashing from ex-mrs HAB about shopping I tried something along those lines. e.g. not complaining, going wherever she wanted, and giving supporting comments.

                  After a little while we went into one of her mates shop. She comments to her, "He's being very good today. He must be after something." So at the next stop ....

                  was her instructions.


                  I wasn't really after anything. I just knew that if I behaved like that it would confuse her and wind her up. She didn't pester me to go shopping for ages after that.
                  How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                    No way chef. I am not that crazy. No it was a guy I worked with at 02 a few years back. And he lived to tell the tale.
