Telling Porkies

By Mieka Smiles on Oct 20, 09 10:55 AM

As we sat watching TV like zombies, I thought I would try something new.

I placed my fingers either side of my head - like a mind reader - and tried my hardest to send a telepathic message to Chris.

Him: "What on earth are you doing?"

Me: "What message do you think I'm trying to send you?"

Him: "Aww babe that's easy - I love you too."

Me: "Erm...yeah - well done!"

Him: "You hesitated! That wasn't it at all was it? Was it?!"

Me: "It was, it was! I promise."

Him: "Do you swear on your mum's life that's what it was?"

Cue sheepish looks.

Him: "Come on, what was it? I won't be mad."

Me: "Could you please bring through the pork scratchings...," I replied, hanging my head in shame.

Who was it that said romance is dead?

In our house it goes romanticly something like this:-
Me. How about some piggy scratchings Pet?
Her. OK.
Me. Go on then, off you go Pet.
Her. WOT? (menacingly)

Longish pause.

Me. They`re in the pantry,third shelf.
Her. Well you`ll be able to find them then, won`t you?
Me. Yes Pet, I won`t be long.
