Excuses you use on the wife!

[FJ_Gefreiter]

My wife knows how much stuff costs and knows the difference between what I "need" and what I "want"

I'm in the very lucky position of having a beutiful wife in the BDM, who keeps telling me it's perfectly ok to get more kit, motorbikes... kettenkrad..

Dont tell her sneak it in with the rest of my stuff.

[Hoffman Grink]

"What? Ooooh that....... it's been there ages - look, it's covered in dust!"

"You have! You said what's that about three months ago.... I've had it YEARS!"

"Shurrup! I just got it out of the loft..... I wondered where I'd put it"

"No it's not new dear" (thinks to self - It's about 63 years old!)

Hmm..I like this topic...already told the hubby he better not try any of these on me. But since I am a reenactor I already know what most of the things cost from visits to vendors sites and things I've bought for him and such..

My husband does not have to use excuses on me, as I grant him every wish in the world!

My wife doesn't like the fact that I can get stuff so easily . She did however, purchase my Zeltbahn for my B-day in December . She thought it was a sleeping bag. Hahahaha. I did explain to her what it was. Other than that, she doesn't say anything. And brother......... sometimes thats louder than words .

With me its books - mainly off ebay or from the U.S.

"It only cost me a couple of quid - Honest! And most of that was postage..."

"But with the dollar so weak it cost, like, 50p!"

The other half's a re-enactor too, so I can't sneak in new bits of kit. However, I managed not to say anything when she told me at Beltring she'd bought the tent that the two of us AND MY CAR were both camping in!
