    If not, hit him over the head with the magazine until he tells you what a lovely photo it is.

    I suppose I have some sympathy. I take it he didn't know?? If it where I, I wouldn't be too concerened because I could say something like 'bloody women'. For me, exposing my situation would be humiliating for me. But I take his point about everyone knowing your business especially if there are people who dont know - say yours/his parents far example. Tough one. Dont be too hard on him. I'm thinking if I saw our lass in a magazine I probably wouldn't say anything either - guess its just a bloke thing!!!! Hope he comes round for you. Tell him if he doesn't there's a queue of blokes (and women????) on here who will sweep you off your feet!!!!!Lenny

    Len,
    I know you're tight and I am trying to be compassionate...I only stick 2 fingers up at him when he can't see me, lol
    He's in a male dominated job like you and they love nothing better to take the Michael, the poor man even had me call the chief for our wedding (behind his back!) and arrange for an appliance to drop me off at the Registry Office...he was mortified! (I also arranged a Guard of Honour without him knowing, he's still miffed about that as he likes to keep his head down and not get noticed!) I guess he shouldn't have married me!

    Anyhoo,
    we're speaking...just...
