My brother lodges with me at the moment and we've both been WFH and share the back room which is quite roomy. We sit at either ends of it and I've twice let go a proper knicker ripper as he's been on a conference call, all in the name of bantz ! Trouble was, his cheap and nasty earphones with the microphone on the cord is obviously more sensitive than i realised, to the point where the others on his call have called him a dirty git and questioned whether he's been ripping up a telephone directory ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a cat, of course Oh no, not at all. She signs one card from both of them. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my wife’s aunties used to send us Christmas card from her & uncle then a “woof” from the dog. This is what happens to people that don’t have kids. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 All of my cards from my wife have my cat and dog on them and at Christmas I get a present from them too. It keeps her happy and I get a present. Whats not to like about this arrangement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Paddywhack Posted May 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2020 Me and Mrs P have both been working from home in lock-down and had our work spaces set up on our small dining room table. Then three times a day we feed the little one here in his highchair and eat tea here together in the evening. She wanted to start a jigsaw puzzle on it the other day but I had to talk her out of it., there's not enough room. It's a pain in the arse constantly shuffling things about or packing work stuff away every evening. 7 weeks in and I've just remembered it's a extendable table. 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted May 7, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2020 Family members with pregnant wives have sent Christmas cards before now with the unborn kid noted on it in various 'witty' ways. Neighbours with dogs have sent cards with the dogs 'licks' on them. I didn't know they had dogs. My 'favourite' though - at uni I knew someone whose Labrador had a Facebook account. Never did find out how it felt about Brexit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 We’re all a bit unsure what to do with ourselves today. Cut the grass, had a picnic in the back garden. Sat on the sofa now with a coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
