Ok the missus is pulling my plunger
She wants Ugg boots (fair do's) so i was going to get them for her. She only goes and tells me she bought a new paid on fleabay the other night.
Granted i am going to pay for them, but i dont have any idea what else to get her. She is wanting some perfume also. Knowing my luck i'l go and get it and she'll have already go it without telling me
I swear to god..........if murder was legal.
She asked me what i want.....for once i don't actually have a clue. i am guessing a Zesty 314 is out of the question....?

Hmm, I think Mrs C will be getting a puppy for Christmas. Personally, I'd rather have turkey, but meh, it's her choice...0

Every year I struggle with that question. People ask, and then watch with disbelief as I think about it, then they say "there must be something!" to which I reply "Yes, but if you're not prepared to pay at least £500, then you probably don't want to know!" It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Mrs CWNT just agreed to buy me a Surly Pugsley frameset for Christmas. Brucey Bonus! gonna get my WIP underway.
In return though, she wants some kind of obscenely priced mobile phone. There's always a catch with these women. :roll:0 -
i tend to be difficult to buy for cause i tend to buy whatever i want, whenever i want it.
however, my bird is buying me a thomson post and stem this time round which is very coolio. im buying here summat from links of london apparently!0 -
my missus want a bike and a phone and an mp3 player.
bugger is its her birthday on 1st January too, so this time of year usually costs me a fortune.
looks like this year is set to be no different.
Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I believe in the future of the human race.

Do not get her a puppy would be a very foolish mistake for the dog in general
because paris can carry her dog around in her hand bag ..
Puppys aren't fashion accessories .0 -

Not sure how to take this post, to laugh or be very worried... :?
I just keep buying bike related stuff for me and the OH and every time I do we say "early Christmas present" so I guess on Christmas morning we ill just have to go our and ride instead of opening pressies... :shock:0 -
I can't say for certain, but I'm fairly sure Mrs. C doesn't want a puppy as a fashion accessory...colintrav wrote:El Capitano wrote:Hmm, I think Mrs C will be getting a puppy for Christmas. Personally, I'd rather have turkey, but meh, it's her choice...

The girlFIEND got a surprise long weekend in Oslo for her Christmas a couple of years ago.
What I didn't tell her was that it was simply the cheapest place to fly to on the RyanAir website.
How we laughed when we found out that Oslo was officially the most expensive city in the world at the time we were there
"Joe . . ." I hear you cry, "just how expensive was it?"
Try £8.50 for a pint of lager, try over £65 for two pizzas, a Bud and a glass of red wine, try £4.50 for a bag of Walkers 'Cheese 'n' Fuc*ing Onion'!! :evil:
That plan backfired on me bigtime.
This year she's getting bloody trainers.0 -

So, I'm officially bankrupt then... I'm only going away for 5 WEEKS to Norway... Damn. Chaz is gonna be one ''living-out-of-his-overdraft'' mother fcuker...! Boo-yah mofo

I hope you weren't serious about a £65 pizza.... Although, I know about the £10 pints, so it's not a mad stretch of the imagination.
Dammit! Boo-yah mofo

No, it's true. It's so expensive that it's actually funny. You'll be amazed.0

I have to admit, Mr Pineapples (sorry, sounds more orginal than Joe) that is one thing I never would have expected to hear from anyone... And it certainly WON'T be funny. I earn a reasonable wage, but NO-WHERE NEAR ENOUGH to spunk £65+ on a friggin' pizza...!!!Joe_Pineapples wrote:No, it's true. It's so expensive that it's actually funny. You'll be amazed.
Just aswell the skiing team I'm out with plan to take as much food as possible in the minibus over to Norway! (And I have the joys of driving ALL THE WAY, on my own. Grrr....)
So hopefully I can opt out of the 'diamond topping' (surely it MUST be for that price!) pizza's... Hopefully... :?Boo-yah mofo

Don't get me wrong, I loved the place. The fjord was frozen over and everything was absolutely beautiful, but we just had to grin and bear it where cash was concerned.
Two meals (starters, steak + chips for me, can't remember what she had and deserts) 2 pints and a large red wine in TGI Fridays = £85.0
