Question New shoes..?

I was wondering what do you do if your missus moans about you fishing too much?

My way to solve this is to go somewhere a bit further afield for the day, so she can go to a different shopping centre, or go round a different place for a day. That way she gets a day out and i don't get moaned at... plus i get a lift!

I tried putting her in her place... i ended up in tears... and the dog house!

Any ingeniuos ideas we could all try out?

P.S. i don't want to hear about 'my missus doesn't moan...' from those more fortunate than most of us. that's just bragging!

sounds like she cant be ersed seeing it from your point of view.... welcome to the club. Good look trying to get her fishing, its worth a shot, if you manage it please share how the hell you did it.

she'll understand eventually. might be a matter of decades though

Do what a work colleague of mine did,

He showed his misses the other options available to himself as a "leisure time" pursuit ..............namely simply sitting in the pub and getting p*shed!!

I think it lasted one weekend then fishing suddenly became "the most wonderful pastime" for him with no more moaning and he was allowed to continue with it until his heart was content.

Thing was, he didn't actually enjoy the pub at all, he's never really been a drinker but a bit of reverse psychology worked wonders for him!!
