Boy that was close. I had this site open on my laptop in the conservatory and was talking to the gardener and when I turned round H was in the living room!
So we had a chat about me having a gardener. He didn't remember I'd started that and I said - We should have done it ages ago. We were both struggling with maintaining the house - me w the housework and you w the garden - when we were so busy. And I kept vetoing your suggestions because i had all these expectations of what we should do as husband and wife when we really can afford it... He looked at me in amazement at my self recognition
Then we were off to get his car and he said - your car is becoming a heap, it's getting like your old one w hubcaps missing... I said - i guess i need a man to look after me. I couldn't even do the music system. i really didn't appreciate what you did around the house. i'm sorry. maybe we can sort my car sometime... he said - one day
so i dropped him off and he said - thanks again, i'll call you tonight - and kissed my cheek.
