Thread: married to a kiwi: Help! My father in law is coming!!!

Hi @gadgetman
I am sure that the destination is going to be magical and am actually looking forward to it. It's a challenge on so many levels and I am also sure I will get on fine with my father-in-law. I did have to embellish a bit for the story, didn't I? He made a great speech at our wedding and I am sure we will get to know each other a lot better (inevitably) after this trip. I'm looking forward to finally finding out what Stewart Island means to my husband and to so many of you. I have come round to thinking that it is actually quite an honour that my family wants me there! And by the way, I do feel sorry you had to sleep in a room with a female! That must have been torture

Oh it was. I did not sleep a wink.

So many 'would-be' match makers. They just could not handle that I was happy being, and staying, single. Mrs gadgetman understands.

Should have shown her your Canoe. If you didn't sleep, it suggests that the canoe was ready to be launched

Alas @Moa Hunter, I really was far too incredibly quite and shy. And I could never sleep in a room with anyone else, a very light sleeper. The snoring didn't help either.

Crikey gadget, you were naïve. That wasn't snoring you fool, that was Husky Deep Breathing of the man attracting type. Clearly she was after a bit of 'Inward Bound' to cap off the 'Outward Bound' !!!

Guilty. I did manage to make it to 29 before I got my first girlfriend. Married two weeks after my 30th birthday, some rubbish about wanting to let folks get even with me before her big day, otherwise it would have been sooner. As if I'd ever give people cause for anything like that!
