I know two wrongs don't make a right but oh, how I would love to be a fly on the wall when this takes effect (if I can stand the stench!)JackTheBiscuit said:I’d bottle it up. Remain in the circle of ‘friends’ and remain calm ……..for a couple of years.At each new event where you may be in the homes of each of the other couples, take fresh prawns with you and when the time is right, sneak out of sight and put them in the turn ups of the curtains, or lift the carpet from the gripper rods and tuck a few of those juicy beauties away there. In a few weeks time the stench will surpass that of their own deceit and disrespect and they will be driven around the bend. Divorce and grief will reign down on those sorry excuses for friends and you will blossom once again. If you find yourself waiting for too long for the invites to occur, I’d invite the culprits to you gaff and have them occupy the second hand sofa that you picked up from Oxfam and which you laced with fleas in the 24 hours beforehand. God I wish I could be there. God bless you.0 -
