Jesus there are some uptight people on here.

Wickers, you'll love it. As will the little one.
Enjoy. Thoroughly.

I hoped you were, but it wasn't obvious.

You have, also, done a good deal of 'France bashing' lately.

Its hard to do tongue in cheek on an internet forum. People need to stop taking this place so seriously though, that might help )

As for the last bit, I'm only being honest. France has its ok places. In fact, I may well be heading there in January, just waiting to see what happens with the snow.

Honesty is what I like and I have never had a problem with you expressing your views (in fact I really respect them!) I know you like some places in France but you are quite open about what you don't like and I wasn't sure if you were joking or not. Which is why I asked if you were 'on a wind up'. I didn't see anyone being uptight.

I could clearly see Andy and salski were joking, Julia wasn't and I just didn't know if Tony was or not because it sounded like one of his usual critiques. As I said, I just answered the question honestly.

Who has been uptight?

You need to use the smiley to hide the sarcasm ;)

I wasn't being sarcastic!

Why are you telling me to 'relax' and 'chill'? What have I done?

All I did was answer a question. :shock:

Now I am p*ssed off!

Julia Moss wrote:Thanks Carol,

Just the sort of thing I'm looking for but can't imagine I'd convince my OH that £370 is worth it, I'm having trouble convincing myself.

Top Tip :thumbup:

Julia - convincing yourself will be easy if you follow these two simple steps.

1 - find the most expensive, most perfect, most amazing pair you can find, send the link to OH and say that "these are what I need [honorific/pet name of choice] but they are just too much"
2 - make sure you have found a very suitable and expensive (but not horiffic) alternative, suggest these instead. OH should be so relieved at just how frugal you are being that aquiescence to the purchase will immediately follow!

Should this tactic not work then the killer is to remind OH just how painful the ski holiday will be should you be reduced to wearing [existing pants/something totally unsuitable].

This will work - it is a tactic my OH has perfected over the years ....
:oops:

Trust me Julia, this tactic works!!!
