what do you have to do to get what you want?
 
Well there i was today minding my own business when out of nowhere i heard

"psst... come here"

i looked around and found the voice to be coming from an antiques shop

"yeah you ....psst .... quick come here"

after a while i realized that this was the same thing us women hear when a nice pair of shoes has just been put onto the sale shelves....

no shoes to be seen but a gorgeous old partners desk from george v period

this may seem sad but i love grotty old banged up (ahem) furniture and i wanted it
i rang the other half and offfered just about everything but my life but he would not see any sense at all - we had no room to put it :( ... aparently- so he's going to be on the wagon for a while if you know what i mean ;)

so what kind of things do you offer to get what you want
(maybe i should have put this in the over 18's) lol

Never do anything out of the ordinary to get what I want, nor does my better half. If the cash is there and either of us want summat we just get it.

Aint any pockets in a shroud ;)

Just keep on about it till he crumbles, like BB and his lovely lady my late hubby and I got things if we could afford if not tough we had to go without.

Just cut the other half out of the loop. Seems to work at ours.

If you want it buy it, arrange for the other stuff to be disposed of. He might whinge at you for a day or so, if he throws the rattle right out of the pram you will have to resort to your own measures :eek::D:D

I 'ain't got another half Keetah, but if I had (mmmm yeh, maybe should be in the over 18's ;) ). If that doesn't work, would do a Catherine Tate :-

"Can I 'av it ?"

"Darling, wouldn't fit"

"Yeh, but can I 'av it ?"

"Can we afford it ?"

"Can I 'av it ?"

"Doesn't match the decor"

"I know, but can we 'av it ?"

"I don't like it"

"Can we 'av it though?"

"Can we think about it ?"

"Thought about it, Can we 'av it ?"

and so on .........

If I tell Busman about something I would like to buy he says "You have to ask yourself two questions..........." this being a quote from a talk a friend once gave and which he has never forgotten although the friend who gave it quite possibly has. The two questions are "Can I afford it?" and "Do I really need it?" - if the answer to both is "yes" then we buy it. If the answer to either one is "no" then we don't.
