Just before we left to go on holiday, I turned the water off. Wife told me not to as "it would stop the fridge freezer from working"

Bless.
Now make up your mind! biggrin Last week she said:-

Left the house to go on holiday and turned off the water under the sink.

Maybe they take many holidays, and she's a bit slow.

Fortunately Mrs PR is sharp as a whip, if she was "slow" I'd not be inclined to boast.
I'm blaming jet lag.

In Sainsbury’s yesterday, she is telling me something across the aisle, so I indicated I couldn’t hear, so she shouts, pointing down an aisle,

“I WILL GO DOWN FOR DOG TREATS”

Quite loudly, which amused me, and a few passers by....
So something like this happened?

Watching The Hunter. Steve Mcqueen's last film?

The scene am watching has a black and a white man only in it. My wife comes in and says she recognises both actors but can't place names. Tell her it is is Steve McQueen and don't recognise other fella. She then asks which one is Steve Mcqueen.

Lost for words.

Maybe she was thinking of Steve McQueen, the director of "12 Years a Slave" fame smile

Alfred Hitchcock was a director and was on screen in his films.

By the way, I obviously wasn't being serious smile

We have one of those kettles that can be set to different temperatures.

"I've put the kettle on to boil at 90"

I think that's about 9000 feet biggrin

[On a radio phone in]

DJ: Can you guess the name of this famous sporting commentator?

[Plays audio clip of excited Murray Walker as Nigel Mansell wins]

Caller: Er, dunno. Can you give us a clue?

DJ: Well, his first name sounds like something you'd suck.

Caller: Dickie Davies?

Not my wife but presumably somebody's ...

Was in a TV shop this lunchtime, watching the live coverage of the leadership election results on the Beeb. The reporter interviewed a young Tory supporter called Cameron Bradbury, and I remarked to a woman standing next to me, "I wonder if he was named after David?"

She said, "Who's David Bradbury?"
