The first time I had an article published in a magzine, my sister was a store manager at an up-market ladies clothing shop. She bought a copy and put it in the “bored husbands entertainment”pile by the changing rooms. One husband was enjoying reading the mag so much he asked his wife to wait a moment while he finished the article.
By the time he finished, she’d added another £125 to the bill !
Only from a long time ago. My wife learnt not to take me shopping when she wants to browse. I’m asking if we can go home now about 10 mins later. Well not all the time. I like to browse music shops so occasionally she has indulge me!
I’m glad to hear it. Numb is better than pain. Just like novocaine at the dentist office, the numbness will wear off and when it does, you will be pain free too. Take care Kate.
Husband, boyfriend, or hyperactive teenager…….lol
Exactly! Or my daughter who hates shopping.
Oh lordy, that one’s a handful. He sounds like my middle child.
A very happy year to your husband too. 🙂
Why is it that middle children are rascals? Their sense of fun is wired differently than the rest of us. Gotta love it tho.
It’s so true, There is a mischief that middle children get in their DNA.
Happy Birthday Robin’s husband!
(I donated a blog award to my man…I’m just saying)
I gave him one too but he returned it to the award store and got a refund.
🙂
Love it! 🙂
Hope hubby had a nice day xx
Thank you. He did~~!
LOL! Hope your man had a very happy birthday, Robin.
It was great. Thanks!

The wife and your sister sound like my kind of gals!
I hope the article the husband was engrossed in was yours!
That is what happens when you keep taking someone shopping for shoes….
Sounds like you are speaking from experience.

Then she is a wise lady. My husband is the same way. Go it, buy it, leave. NO browsing and wandering the aisles. None.
I want to do a number of these things… It’s almost like a challenge: who can do the weirdest things in a shop! Anyone up for it? 😉
Aren’t you a naughty one.
Haha very fun. Happy birthday Mr Coyle.
I will pass it on to him. Thanks Kate.
You doing better?
You are so lovely. I am doing better but I think I’m still numb in lots of ways. I’m keeping busy and that helps.

Inspired!
Happy birthday to your husband.
Thanks Tilly. I’ll tell him you said so.
I want to have a shopping cart race with that guy.
Enjoy celebrating hub’s birthday!
I bet you would win!
Dinner party to begin in an hour. Want to come over?
I’ll pick up some wine!
Enjoy your husband’s birthday. If you do it right you make the experience nearly as good as having a birthday yourself 🙂
Thank sweetie! I love his birthday. Big party in an hour.
This might give some young boys some ideas….! Watch out! 🙂
Ha ha! You are right. I’m keeping my eye on my shopping card from now on.
Reblogged this on bflyzone and commented:
Where can I find a guy like this?
Hahaha this is GREAT!!! I just read this out loud at work…. Funny.
Kinda sounds like dad, huh?
Hi,
That is hilarious. 😀
A very Happy Birthday to your husband as well. 🙂
The guy is creative!
I’ll pass your birthday wishes along to my husband.
This might make me fall in love with this man all over again. I find his creativity wildly appealing. ; )
And happy birthday to your husband!
He thinks outside of the box . . . condom box that is!
How could I not like this? I like Oxford and may know this man. Must ask him if he shops with his wife.
Perchance this man is you?
Gosh, I envy him his imagination! No, (thank you for thinking of me) but possibly a brother in law.
I like your brother-in-law.
