|
|
Quite often my wife Brenda comes out with some funny sayings. Most of the time they are unintentional but now and again she gets the better of me. For instance last week I asked her how many blank pages she had left in her passport, just in case we needed to apply for a new one. She replied, "I've got five full pages which are empty."
Obviously that was one of the unintentional ones. One she got me with and often reminds me about is this. I asked her, "What's it like being married to a genius?" to which she instantly replied "I don't know, I haven't asked you."  |

No she's a Geordie. :lol:
Another one from the other day..........
She was doing a bit of genealogy on the Internet and came across a page with telephone numbers on them and she said to me "I've just found a page with our telephone number on it from where we lived when I was little." I asked her "Did you remember the number?" She replied "Not at first but when I read it, it rang a bell."
I wonder if anyone answered. :lol: |

My wife, Fran, will sometimes say something that just stops me in my tracks. :shock:
While searching for a new restaurant recently that we wanted to try, I discovered that it was rather hard to find. It was in an out of the way location that could only be accessed from one direction. Once we arrived, my wife stated... "if you didn't know it was there, you wouldn't know it was there".
Once when I called one of her comments to her attention, she replied..."sometimes I say something before I think it". :lol:
We recently celebrated our 44th anniversary and I still find her a joy to be with.  _________________ Regards,

When we're able to find the right person to be with it's always a joy...
We can only hope they feel the same..

That is hilarious!
Congratulations on 44 years! I hope one day I can say the same (I'm pretty confident at the moment that I will!) |

We married on 21 July 1962, so I think I beat you by one year John
My wife was from a Scottish mother and an Irish father, a pure Celt.
Her logic sometimes defies logic!

My wife decided to make Cantonese chicken the other day. She tasted the sauce before putting it in the pan to warm up and said "It may be too spicy." Anyway as I'm game for anything I said "Go ahead and I'll eat it." After the meal I said to her "It wasn't that spicy after all." "No" she said, "It was a lot hotter when it was cold."  |
