Dead Men Walking

Is this all she's worth?   :lmfao:

I always get many cards on valentine's day. I guess you'll see why tomorrow...

I placed an order with Tesco online for flowers on the 5th of Feb. I requested a delivery for today because my wife doesn't work on Mondays so is at home (working ;))

Guess what. They didn't ship the bloody things until tonight and had the cheek to send me an email telling me how pleased they were to have sent my flowers. I think the young lady in Customer Services was right when she agreed to pass me through to a manager who turned out to be a proper little Miss Tesco. Started giving me all sorts of crap about how the delivery dates weren't guaranteed etc etc. Well of course I agreed with her. How can they be guaranteed when you don't even try to ship until the day of delivery  <_<

So, no flowers for swmbo tomorrow but I got the TANGO to refund the cost because they had not fulfilled my request.

I think the ASDA one looks better.

What are you thinking of BB? you never buy flowers for a Wife :P

they always think you're having an affair <_<

Card en flowers? Be more original and up to date.
I've set up an emailaccount, put some music on it which I knew she'd like.
Suggestion: Racoon, a Dutch band, don't worry, they sing in English.

I got the misses a card, flowers and her fav chocs. I got a good response as its the first time she has ever received a proper bunch of roses. Bloody expensive but I haent yet told her about the latest purchase.  :whistle:

And hopefully going for a day at Eden Hall (health Spa place)

Mmm,  obviously still on the marital 'full rations' I reckon. :greenwithenvy:

stuck in Copenhagen is a good excuse for sending nowt :) apart from an e-card.
One better than Whitey who sends his wife bugger all!

I'm gonna go home after work. That's enough of a present. If she doesn't like that I hae a reserve.

A punch in the kidneys.

Valentines....my harris. Another hallmark money spinner to drain my pockets, you'll be telling me that there's a day where you trade chocolate eggs and make some crap up about bunnies.

That'll be national bunny hopping day. First started years ago in a game called CounterStrike and lateron it was done in a game called BattleField 2. Then soldiers in the US army copied this tactic unsuccesfully because their commander called N.0.0.B. Bush thought: "Hey, that's awesome, people can't hit you then, why don't I teach my army this.
Why they were trading chocolate eggs still remains a mystery but there was a CIA-document about it with the words: chocolate coloured aliens, president Bush kidnapped while trying to escape by bunnyhopping while eating his breakfast of scrambled eggs.
And to honour these men, bunny hopping day was invented.*
