Hi all, it's my wedding anniversary today and for the first time I did what I was told and not buy any gifts etc( mainly as we off for weekend away/wedding which probably has drained the funds).
So I did as I was told and not buy her a gift but who said Others cant buy me a gift to celebrate how good I have been. A nice siphon g and some dapol milk tankers arrived today from my good uncle HATTONS
Cheers
Bart

Congrats Mr & Mrs Bart !.
I wish Uncle Hatton would send me something nice. Perhaps I may have to "visit" him.......

Is your Uncle HATTON related to my Uncle OSBORN ?



Whoops typo corrected - I do actually have an Uncle Osborne (with the E) I meant without as in the the emporium in Bideford

Congratulations to both of you Bart you are doing a great job

er . . .  would that be your Uncle Gordon Osborne, the UK Chancellor  ? If so then, if you could persuade him to have zero VAT on anything N gauge and also banish customs charges for anything N gauge then that would be great

Belated congratulations Bart on your wedding anniversary yesterday

No I think your uncle osbournes is related to my aunts Sheffield though.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Yeh she is a keeper. She lets me indulge in my hobbies, and I have a few I must admit but as a good hubby I spoil her rotten and make time for her. She does a good job at keeping zac, Mitch, lily and me all in line especially since I'm away with work four days at a time.
And to top it off she's bought me some rolling stock for Easter as I don't eat chocolate, now that's sweet!

Just woken up so belated congrats from this part of the world Mr & Mrs B!

Sounds like you have a great combo going there.

Congratulations!

Hearty congratulations
Has Mrs B got a sister living in the UK?

OMG ... you believed her when she said that   Well, that's definite proof you've not been married long !

Congrats on 15 (I'm going on 23 next month - and will be buying SWMBO something even though she says not to - I ain't daft !  )

Being married is a great life. Congratulations on 15 years.
We are into 39 years this year and still together but never celebrate our anniversary with more than a card and a hug.

Huh! Pair of novices. 53 years in June.

More than two life sentences!!!

You've been married 15 years and you haven't worked out when 'Don't' means 'DO' yet ? Oh dear.     

Me thinks you need to get down to the shops PDQ if you want to maintain domestic harmony, particularly if/when she finds out you've been spending money on yourself but haven't bought anything for her.
