You can’t beat a few hours in a small mobile home in 28 degree heat and 3 tired hungry kids to clear the air.

We had an intensive 5 min session of trading insults upon arrival on Monday evening, i really had to dig into the past for previous noted fcuk ups but I held my own and took all my notes weaknesses on the chin.

A lovely sense of calm after.

I do not know how ye do it.

I do not know how ye do it.

Experience informs you that you’ll never win these duels, all you can do is hope to hold your own and walk away with a bit of dignity.

Also worth letting day to day to stuff go and putting it in the memory bank instead so that you’ve a bit of ammunition for such encounters.

Its about time you set up a specific thread for all your terrible holiday location choices. You’ve set a bar that absolutely none of us ever want to get close to

Did you “go for a walk” afterwards?

[johnnysachs]

How much did you pay to leave your country mansion and move into a cramped tin can for a week?

From experience it’s best to get these blow outs out of the way early doors on holidays, you can relax then until next time🤣

I was considering investing in a motorhome for my retirement and was discussing it recently with a pal of mine who used to deal in them.

He pointed out the pitfall of a row with the Mrs when you’re cooped up in one of them and have nowhere else to go. I’m having second thoughts.

[myboyblue]

She’d hardly murder you at this stage?

Go for it.

Although, you probably should rent one first to just test it out.

A wife?

[FatChops]

Those holiday contretemps are great duels. Dig deep.

Wait to buy the motorhome until after the divorce so.

We used to have a conversation around camping, to which my answer invariably was that I don’t work hard all week to sleep in a field full of midgies and shit in a bucket.
The end.

Or make one up like I did

[TheUlteriorMotive]

I used to try and win those exchanges. A fool’s errand.

I now bring the ball to the corner flag and play for a draw.

Similar answer I give when the suggestion of getting a ferry and driving to the south of France comes up. What about ‘the experience and the memories it’ll give them’? Taking a flight for 2 hours rather than a 24 hour journey is a much better memory in my head

[carryharry]

I had a massive win this morning. I fucking smashed it

[TheUlteriorMotive]

In the fullness of time you’ll see it was A Pyrrhic victory.

[carryharry]

Not at all. I smashed it
