In the dog house again, Mrs brydo asked me which song we had our first dance to at our wedding …………. tumble weed ……………… racking the brain ……………. no idea.

“You have never done anything romantic” to which I replied “I let you have my kids” didn’t go down well, so tomorrow she isn’t letting me cook her dinner, shop for her food, help her in and out the bath, or do her washing or clean the house.

If only I had known it was that easy I would have been unromantic before lol.

Romantic?

 

Dressed & pressed & living at home at the time
When I met my one & only Valentine
We were young , fit, and in our prime back in 65
Twisting to Chubby Checker, with the occasional jive

At the Club Double Diamond she came on in through the door,
Just able to see her through the smelly thick smoke,now covering the dance floor
This vision of loveliness and her good looking best mate
Wow, I said out loud & dived straight in & asked for a date

Don’t be daft ‘I’m not like that ‘ said she
Neither am I usually said little old shy boy me
Would you like some crisps or perhaps a drink?
‘Snowball please’ without even a blink

Her mate and mine went off to do their own thing
Whilst we sat down to hear our Tom sing
Yes, it was ‘not unusual’ way back in 65
For him to still perform locally & live

After that it became a fairly regular thing
Dating, not listening to our Tom sing
Then in October of 68, we tied that marital knot
And names went down for a council housing spot.

It’s ‘s been a long eventful journey since that Double D day
Having two kids , 4 grand kids and acquiring a dog along the way
And yup, she’s still my only Valentine , Mrs. seven zero zero
and for putting up with me for all this time – she is also my hero?

Mike you had me reaching for my sick bucket ? only kidding very romantic.

Ah, Brydo, so you merely “cook her dinner, shop for her food, help her in and out the bath, or do her washing or clean the house.” But you don’t offer chauffering services OR order her stuff on computer OR do her ironing! What do you expect? Can’t be romantic without those…

[Brydo]

Tharg my list was left intentionally incomplete as I need to massage her most nights not to mention pedicure when required the list is endless but according to the Mrs I do nothing lol.

[Brydo]

I’ve been married 38 years, if I’d murdered her I’d be out by now, and it just seems like yesterday, if it was tomorrow I’d cancel it lol.
