Spread your wings and fly away

Eldest son is at a friends house.

He texted me earlier asking if he can stay, so I text him back asking him till when.

Tomorrow he replies.

So I phone him.

Me: We are going out tomorrow, annual outing to Wrest park for St Geourges day.

Him: Yes I know.

Me: So what are you going to do.

Him: come home at 6.

Me: No it is a family outing!

Him: I know that is why I will be home at 6.

Then it dawned on me he is talking about 6am, not pm.

Me: I don't think so, your dad will pick you up at 8 this evening.

Him: Oh, can't I stay.

Me: no, you are coming home.

He then spends 5 minutes talking to his friend and trying to find information about it all on the internet. When I finally get his attention I manage to tell him that he hasn't got a change of clothes so can't stay (I can't stand smelly children).

Just had a thought though bet he has a sulky evening now lol!

Or so says the sign held up by someone in the crowd at the game.

Not that i went of course, I wouldn't be so silly. I heard about it all on the radio so that I could show some interest when hubby comes home to tell me what crap or how good the game was.

Of course he had to go to the match - what miss spurs an arsenal play? Couldn't possibly miss that one.

Course as we near the end of the football season I will have to deal with a husband who will suffer from withdrawal symptons and throw himself into work. Then come August it will be going back to consulting the oracle fixtures list to arrange my life around it in case it clashes with him seeing the love of his life his beloved team.

Personally I think the statement above is wrong.

Real women, if they have any sense at all, don't date football supporters! Please don't do it unless you are seriously into football!

On the positive side he can't criticise me for spending money when he spends a fortune on a season ticket can he lol!!!
