Almighty God in heaven...give me strength.
The Wife walks past me into kitchen as I read Moonies above post.
Me: "Hey Sam, are you still reading the Michael Palin book?"
Wife: "Yeah...why?"
Me: "Nowt really, only Urban Hatemonger's reading it an all...any good then?"
Wife: (wife now looking over my shoulder) "Yeah...nearly finished it...Oh look, adidasss is reading George Orwell" (wife monologue follows, about how Continentals put us to shame when it comes to languages)
Me: (quietly wanting her to go away by now)
Wife: (pauses for breath)
Wife: "I didn't know you had joined a book forum"...
