this is how much I love my man:

I gave up 2 hrs gardening in the sunshine to search for wet fish & double cream, in order to make him Gordon's Posh Fish Pie for dinner. (I'm vegetarian & the smell of fish makes me gag)

I haven't yet told him I want him to saw up some wood for me.

And so he should after you cooked that for him.

Seconded! He should offer to saw the wood after that.

I hope he'd do something similar for you. For example, volunteer to miss the footie/night out with the lads to do something you would like (and without having to be nagged).

Good food always does the trick!! I'm sure he'll do anything you want!!

Eugh - fish *shudders*

I went for an OH that only eats chip shop cooked fish...so I'll buy it for him if I want anything done - but keep him out of my garage/woodworking area - he's a nightmare with handyman stuff [much better at the ironing].

What was the fish pie like then? I assume by now you're the proud owner of a pile of carefully sawn wood?

Buy him some Phish Food next time - he gets cream and fish, and you don't suffer the smell.

I love the smell of fresh fish. As a child, my dad used to take us to the fish market (other kids went to Alton Towers, but we're not bitter) and I used to hold my breath until we got right to the middle, and then breathe in all the loveliness. Then some hot peas and a pair of oysters at Eric's Oyster Bar
and back in time for Dr Who.

I still love a good fish market. The Portuguese ones make my heart sing!

Oh you are such a wrong 'un. When I was a nipper I used to sprint past the fish market in town and then wait for my Mum and sister to catch up. Always did make me gag and I still walk swiftly past the fish counter now.

yup - me too.
