No Ben, no meeting halfway. Tell them if you can't watch 39 football matches over a month long period, then they can't watch 15 episodes of soaps every week in the 4 years between. If you have sky, that rule can be easily enforced from anywhere in the world by using the sky+ app. Just make sure you remove the aerial cable from the telly first so terrestrial doesn't work. Similarly, if they really put their foot down and you want to come across as being well behaved, you can always pull out ther old trick of "I'm tired" or "I don't feel well" which coincidentally seems to come on in an instant the moment you try it on with them.

Our lass doesn't watch telly so she doesn't care at all. I could watch footy 24 hours a day and she wouldn't give a toss. Squeeze in a bit of rugby cricket tennis and golf aswel Jobs a good un
Other half, sons and father in law!! Plus daughter who also loves footi!!! Nothing sinister you see!!! Can't understand these females who moan about it being on all the time!! Now if it were cricket or golf.......
Bob. This^ is truly the work of true a genius. I wonder if she'll talk to me tomorrow ? We're only on the second day, let's see how i get on. Wait....not only me ! You all have to tell us about how many times you get a veg moussaka for your tea.
Two points from Carmine. Point 1. Women's logic. Her indoors tits about with the layout of the sitting room in the East Wing, including moving the TV. f**ks knows how but she's managed to f**k up the reception in the games room in the West Wing but swears blind it's got f**k all to do with her pulling wires out left right and centre. It's a coincidence that since her attempt at Feng shui the other TV is ballsed up. She's left it to me to sort. Point 2. To get my own back I told her the warm up games against Honduras and Ecuador were World Cup games and I, therefore, had first dibs on the main goggle box. I won't act the big man, I'd struggle to get warm ups past her. She didn't half looked confused when she saw the opening ceremony on the news.
Carmine mate, just tell her with all the Feng Shui going down, you got confused! Or better still the opening ceremony was a repeat! Job's a good one!
Think our lass has hit breaking point. Complaining all the way through the Brazil v Mexico game. She's getting payback big time right now. ****ing Mama Mia on the box.
Kinell. She just said put your phone down or you're not watching rambo. She's lurking on here now. I'm f**ked. Ain't even got a shed to slink off to.
pleased to meet you miss triple H. When's it going to be Mrs Triple H. He shouldnt be wasting his time on here he should be looking at soft furnishings with you like decent men do.
Thanks for the support fellas. Meanwhile I'm having to sit through the mother from 2.4 children sing an average abba song.
