Friday Funnies

Sometimes I come across much humour on the www, sometimes not. Aside from what Bob posts at times, often bleak humour, there hasn't been much of late but this amused me. I am Margaret when the detail is important, but my idea of what is fact and what is important is rather different to R's, and yes I did recently correct him on how many years we have been together. I'm always in trouble!

I am sure the lovely real Margaret in Tasmania is not like this, is she?

  1. Smiling. Despite that fact that both of us are hazy on how long we have been together. Forty four years? Forty five?

    1. EC, I didn't know you have been together for so long. Well done you. You've kept your mouth shut at times.

    1. Guilty by confession, JayCee. Read on and it seems bloggers are a little prone to 'correct memories'.

    1. Non confessions are getting tiresome Debby. C'mon, tell the truth.

  5. ahhh see I think that their conversation is _not_ humour. Rather it is serious analysis of marital relationships.

  6. I try to not be a Margaret these days. It's surprisingly easy to keep my mouth shut.

    1. River, if you are talking about different generations, you're on road to nowhere. Best keep your mouth shut.

  7. Oh. That did make me laugh. Me to a tee I have to confess.

    1. Marie, and I thought, 'Actually Andrew, you are not quite right about that', was just a dream.

    1. It seems to be a blogger disease JB. There isn't a cure beyond stifling what you want to blurt out.

  9. When I wasn't sure of how many years, I simply said, "30 odd years" to which the reply was "some of them odder than others."

    1. Debby, I wonder if that works better or makes things worse.

  11. I admit to being nitpicky on numbers but have learned to Let It Go in my doddering years. My father was the same so some traits are inherited in spite of ourselves. I love the smug face on her.

    1. WWW, so often being accurate matters very little but there are times when it does matter and I will speak up then. I am realising now what parental traits I've inherited and I am not sure I like what I am seeing.
