Watching Father Ted tonight, my wife said..."Father Ted - I don't get it."


Playing golf a couple of weeks ago a guy said to me...."Mrs Brown's Boys - I just don't get it" - I thought, what a twat.


I can't really make this type of remark about my wife's lack of respect for Father Ted though - what should I do? There is no future if we can't reconcile this issue. Help.

I don't like poker? first I knew - love poker but rarely comes into my life.


Double irony...my investion of "Mrs ????" doesn't really exist, as in she walked from the money - as women aren't greedy like men. I'd guess GG plays poker with the main aim being for fun not money, happy to be corrected by the GG.

Maybe she doubled the ?1 you gave her and wanted a Coke - job done.

I'm with her


On my Vegas honeymoon, I was asked why I wasn't playing "not my cup of tea really, bit boring" and I was up on my betting money too.


"Maybe you'd be better off away from the table" said the security guy, taking my drink, leading me elsewhere.


Seeing a Philippino lady (dead in the eyes) play two slots at the same time, with a a bucket of coins propped on a seat for each one, just about finished me off. (as did the swim up poker/roulette table in the pool, as did the fibreglass trees)


Yeah yeah - I get that "for that moment when i'm deciding where I place my money, i'm in control of what i'm doing" thing - but boring as hell, even worse hearing about it.


Meh - with added Meh !


Father Ted is genius tho - poor you Mic.

Oh dear mic mac, how could you have gotten this far? You even went on holiday to Vagas with this woman.


Does she understand the "this cow small, that cow far away scenario"?


Completely with her on the Mrs Browns boys tho - I am of the ginger persuasion and from that neck of the woods, so I can say with total authority it is utter sh*te.


Go for anulment, I am sure there must be a clause that covers "the missus doesn't get Father Ted".

    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas! 
    • That is almost too ridiculous to answer but I'll take the bait. You are comparing a national charity with one branch of a small charity. Cats Protection has around 34 dedicated rehoming centres. CHAT has two, Lewisham & Canning Town and a sanctuary in Sussex. So if Cats Protection have homed 34,000 cats, thats an average of 1000 per branch. From memory this years total so far for Lewisham CHAT was over 980. I saw a few homed this weekend so we may well reach 1000 for this year. The same as Cats Protection. No need for head scratching.    
    • Actually, if it was factory fitted then it's location would be documented. It's the fact that it can be fitted in different places which means that it's difficult for thieves to locate.
