I'm a keen amateur photographer and I saw a very special lens for my camera on offer.
Before I knew it, my card was out and I was leaving the shop very happy but feeling guilty about the purchase.
Now, how do I tell the OH?
Do I say, "What this old thing - no, I've had it for years, you've seen it before, I took that picture of Uncle Charlie with it at the wedding in 2002, don't you remember"
or do I simply come clean and offer to take it back?
or do I simply offer wine, chocolates and Jimmy Choo shoes?
I'm pretty sure I've fallen for the "You've seen these before" answer when I've suddenly noticed, (I thought), a new pair of shoes or a new (to me) dress
Do I come clean, tell a lie or take her shopping in return?
Will I ever be able to use the lens without feeling guilty?
"I only bought the lens because I thought the world was going to be swallowed up by a black hole from Cern today"........(worth a try perhaps?)
