This is a transcript of a telephone conversation I had with my missus this morning, while she was at work,
Wife Have you got any thin bendy plastic in the garage (my workshop)
Me No, why
Wife I'm making Eva (our 7 year old granddaughter) a bat costume for Halloween and I need something for the wings
Me Sorry all I have is 3 ply, hardboard or cardboard
Wife No there no good they'll be too heavy
There is now a long pause with neither of us speaking
Wife Well do you need any for your future projects? Because if you do then you could buy it now and we could use a
little bit for the wings on Eva's bat costume
She is actually telling me to go and buy materials for future projects, whenever I say I need to buy such and such she always kicks up a fuss
Me No sorry I don't think I will need any thin bendy plastic sheets
Wife Well thinking about it thick cardboard may work as it's only for the fin bits of the bat wings
Me If it's only for the fin bits of the wings will 6mm dowel work?
Wife Well........I suppose it will, but if you had any thin bendy plastic that would be better, not to worry I'll ring you when
I'm on my lunch break, love you, bye
We've been married 29 years,and I love her to bits, we have 2 lovely daughters who are married and have given us 3 lovely grandchildren (Eva 7, Harry 2, Finn 1) but you know sometimes she really does try my patience.
No the wonder I call myself,
