Where would we be without humour!

Where would we be without humour!

I met my wife Ade in 1969, we started dating and when we got serious I made her a promise…..

I said to her, I will never hold onto an argument longer than I can hold onto a f*rt”!!

 

Many times over the years we have put that statement to the test. When one or the other of us gets a bit tetchy over something and we seem to reach that impasse, I (or she) will say….F*rt time?”….we have a little chuckle, realise that molehills are far more prolific than mountains…….. and we get on with life!

 

I won’t say humour has saved our relationship but, it has saved us from many uncomfortable silences.

 

Cheers……..Rob

I love this @Robin4 - "it's f*rt time" made me giggle a lot!

 

Life's too short to hold onto negativity, and this is a great reminder that sometimes we do just have to concede that "it's f*rt time" and let it go.

 

Thanks for the wisdom!

On odd occasions Jen, that moment in the argument and...... 'nature' would coincide!

 

And that really did give us something to giggle about!

 

Cheers.......Rob
