My wife is sensible because she doesn't drink alcohol except for a baileys at Christmas, whereas I admit to being an alcoholic.

My wife buys lots of pointless things such as tin foil squashed into shapes (they call it Pandora jewellery).

Did you see the programme on Ch5 last night about Aspreys? They were trying to flog about 40 handbags at around Ł3,000 apiece. One woman bought a dozen.

mickey house Thread Starter Imagineer Join Date: Sep 06	I have to mow the lawn and do a workout, and I've just taken my wife's car on the M40 for a run this morning as it hasn't moved in weeks (plus I popped in the shop for her), so I do so many things I don't get the credit for.

Do you know if the woman lived in Ruislip who bought them all?

I spotted a flaw in your scheme MH. You have a joint account. That means she has access to all the money. Maybe you should think again.

Again I plead for you to go onto Mumsnet. This is exactly the sort of question they love on AIBU.
