My good lady is used to it now, she just shakes her head, walks away, and sighs,:embarrassed::biglaugh: I tell her that it is purely for research purposes, much as I used to when I drank and dabbled in 'substances',:shocked::no: But she will have none of it, I am generally met with: 'Pfffffttttttt, I wish you spent as much time with me as you do that lot on PIO'. I normally answer: 'Come here my sweet, I will push your buttons as well' (well, with the aid of a map and compass :embarrassed:)............................. 'But just let me finish this post/thread first'.:no::yes::biglaugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawny Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I got in trouble all the time..... i knew pio had become addictive, when i forgot what my o/h looked like, kids were un washed, no lunch box made up for the morning, and the dogs packed their bones and went to live next door!! Awful it was.. felt so guilty in the name of research.... now back in the uk, nothing has changed, except i may take notice of my surrounding family in the morning befor they head out the door :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbothejoiner Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Why did you come home if it's not too personal a question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawny Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Why did you come home if it's not too personal a question? no your ok! It was all to do with our kids unhappiness, especially our middle boy! It wasn't a case of him not settling it was a mixture of things, It was in our best interests and our sons to return, nothing to do with hating Australia, far from it! :cute: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calNgary Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 OMG i have honestly lost count of the amount of arguments myself and hubby have had over the past few years over me being on PIO so much,lol. Luckily hubby must have realised he is on a losing battle and now rather than comment he gives me ''THE look'',,lol Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest siamsusie Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 As long as I dont read out the posts to him, my husband is more than happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Pom Queen Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Well as I've said before, the only way hubby could get me to talk with him was by re-mortgaging the house and buying the forum, little does he know but I've added him to my ignore list especially when the ironing pile gets larger and larger "ssshhhh don't tell Rob" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sh7t man no way Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 i get a bit of ear ache from her in doors--but i say what could be worse is that i could be talking drivel to you rather than those guys on pio--she sees the sense in this,and lets me play till me hearts content:jiggy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
