My sisters, mother and I have had some amazing screaming matches, over the years, and we always feel much better afterwards, and even closer!
In my DH's family, if they say one wrong word to each other, it can be a year before normal service resumes.
When we were first married, and we have been pretty happily married for over 20 years now, I tried the screaming approach, that my family adopts, and he tried the silent, sulking resentful approach from his background, and we very nearly didn't survive the first year, but we have kind of figured out a way of conflict resolution that works for us both now.
As for the Loewe handbags, do they stock them in Dublin? ..... Do you have a reward system for over achievement built into your budgets..... ?
EDIT - just checked the prices .......... EEEEEEK!! Block the website! Maybe have one as a reward for finishing off the whole mortgage x."I wondered why the Frisbee was getting bigger, and then it hit me". £9/£250
