Re: STUFF TO DO WHEN YOU'VE TOO MUCH TIME ON YOUR HANDS
Wife and i had one of those arguments last night that you have when you've been together 30 years and theres nothing sensible left to argue about. We were sitting watching a show about house renovating and the couple doing up the house were called Garden, they introduced their daughter Kate, and the missus said "people have no imagination, if we were called Garden, we would call our daughter Rose", i agreed but after giving it abit of thought said, "what about Beer, Beer Garden is a great name", the wife says, "thats a stupid name, Rose Garden would be perfect", so i says, "well its my daughter too, and i like Beer", so the missus says "who said its your daughter", so i said " you said , if we had a daughter we would call her Rose", so she said "well i may have lied, i may have had an affair", so i said "well did you", so she said, "no but if i was this other person Mrs Garden i may have done, so i can call my daughter what i want", so i said "look, if i'm going to bring up this other blokes daughter the least i can do is get to name her", so she said "well you would'nt know it was'nt your daughter" so i said "well i've have a fair idea when it started looking less like me and more like Denzil Washington", this calmed her down for abit, so i added, "and dont think i wont get DNA tests done and sue you for all the money you have", so she says, "well that would'nt be much', so i said " well how do you intend looking after our daughter Beer then", it went abit quiet so being such a nice bloke, i said "allright Rose it is but if we have a son its Beer", wife agreed, and we went back to watching the show, but after giving it some more thought i said, "No, Beer can be his middle name, his first name can be Ivor", even the wife had to agree that Ivor Beer Garden was a great name.
