Is that a 'decree from on high', or is he just a big chicken?

Easy solution. Christmas is coming up. Buy her one with a lot of pockets in it, so she can organise it.. then complain if the phone isn't in it's designated place.

Are you having a laugh? I'm not buying her another bloody handbag - she just got a new one FFS

Actually, the spring on the flash on her digital camera conveniently broke yesterday so her Christmas present is sorted this year

I dunno...it's an unwritten rule I guess. If I wasn't around and he wanted something he still wouldn't go into my handbag.

I won't go in unless asked. That's more to avoid being accused of losing something than anything else.

Of course I'm having a laugh. The clue was in "then complain if the phone isn't in it's designated place". The thought of you actually daring to complain to "SWMBO" about that, is actually unthinkable.

Absolutely rightt. Violating a woman's handbag is a crime that could result in you having your fingers castrated.

Your fingers are the bollocks of your wife's handbag. You'd do well to remember that.

I've had my fill of that for the last few weeks.

Depending on the outcome of the owners' meeting with our accountant, it may actually get quite a bit worse.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on that one.

At least the server is back up and running, as of half an hour ago ...

Of course, my own computer had to go and kill itself yesterday morning, so now I have to reinstall Quickbooks on this one, which is my old boss's. Someone quit (or was let go) this morning too, if I'm correctly informed

Sounds like the place is falling apart around your ears.

Everything except the server. It'll have a few years in it I'd wager.
