I got the STARE when I informed Mrs Cow that when we are educating the kids

I actually told the mrs off when we were in Australia for continually saying "Can I get" instead of "Could I have"
I always think "Can I get" sounds really rude. And the mrs is always banging on about me not saying please. But that annoys me, because if you ask someone politely for something (e.g. Mrs al? Could you possibly pass me that screwdriver as I'm stuck up a ladder?") then you say thanks afterwards then to me that's fine without the please, and being badgered to say please when you're standing on a fucking ladder trying to stop the light fitting falling down is really irritating.

It's that kind of shit that tears a marriage apart.
Catface covered the entire cooker in grease yesterday because he fried the bacon at too high a temperature. I told him off because he did the same thing last week, and when I pointed it out then he said "oh sorry, I didn't think". He didn't learn either. *brandishes rolling pin menacingly*

No, fry for longer.
Also, put a lid over the pan, stops the grease going everywhere.

I've been watching Game of Thrones all weekend.
You're lucky I don't come over there and declare war on your house. I think we can form a truce though. Besides, those swords look heavy.

I tried that based on a recommendation

I've just finished Season 1 and the first episode of Season 2 is my evening's viewing, very exciting.
I put off watching it for ages because I thought it was going to be some kind of LARPer shit.

My first test run is tonight. A gentle 3 miles with only one trip up Cat Hill.
I think I'll be doing it in the rain, but that's okay, as it means I can try my birthday running raincoat.
