new bag

my wife had three grueling days at a business workshop, developing a margin policy, why you need a policy for something that appears on the side of lined paper I don't know but thats corporate business for you. anyhow she had to be away from home so me and Fred had to get along for 72 hours without excessive fighting or trouble and i had to feed, water and rest him. Phew!

With such a tough schedule she grabbed sometime at the end and went shopping.On return we exchanged kisses and hugs and she excitedly wanted to show her new acquisitions.This went well until we got to the new bag.......

'so do you like the bag'

yeah its good

' this is very special, its the new mulberry design, how much do you think it cost?'

OK, now it went badly wrong. All I can say is that when your wife asks this question, think of a figure, a large one and at least double it and add 50%. That just might get you into clear territory.

All I could say was it just did not look that type of bag, one that needs a small mortgage but I said if you really like it, you deserve it.

We went off to a party and my wife grabbed me, and as if vindicated, introduced me to a lady who had apparently seen her come in with this bag and went ' OMG, its the new mulberry design, i so want one of those, I've seen it on the website and now seeing it in the real, I want it '.

What could i do, so, fortunately for me Charlie was standing close by, who i hazzard a guess was not good in this area. ' Charlie how much do you think Rachels new bag cost?'

Looking slightly puzzled ' maybe £150 ($250)' 

Yes,he undercut my pitiful guess by just over 100%. Which proves what, I might be bad at this stuff but some dads are really bad.
