andsome Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 OH DEAR!!! I woke up this morning, to be given a nice wedding anniversary card from 'Er indoors. After 47 years, I HAD FORGOTTEN. At least it is the first time ever. Just off out now while she is out to buy a nice bouquet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanHo Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 I gave up birthdays and anniversaries many years ago - why inflate Valentine Incs coffers when a personal greeting is much more welcome.The thing to do is spring surprises at random through the year - ignore Christmas, Valentines day and birthdays because there is an element of compulsion involved - you are sort of obligated and thus any card or gift cannot be truly from the heart.To arrive home out of the blue with a bag of King Edwards and wish her a happy October 7th - or give her a nice shiny new tin opener on April 3rd will produce a much more emotional effect.PSHappy October 25th everyone. :wub: :innocent: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted October 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Thanks for the congrats folks. She was surprisingly good humoured about it. There is a nice bouquet on the hall floor for her to see when she comes back home in about half an hours time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandalph Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 OH DEAR!!! I woke up this morning, to be given a nice wedding anniversary card from 'Er indoors. After 47 years, [colour=#CC0000]I HAD FORGOTTEN[/colour]. At least it is the first time ever. Just off out now while she is out to buy a nice bouquet.Congratulations andsome, and 'er indoors of course.If she says anything like "Did you forget that it was our anniversary today", just say "No dear, of course not. I just wanted to get the flowers today as they would be fresh and last longer". That one gets them every time. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artist Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Oh, Nell - you surely know by now that you have to keep on dropping BIG hints when there a birthday coming up. It's good if you can get people to suggest to him what you'd like, as well........ :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
