Philippa didn’t see eye-to-eye with me about the chalet. Bloody woman is obsessed with ‘saving, not spending’
She thanked me for my efforts but thinks she might be able to find somewhere else for us that’s a lot cheaper. I said “Good luck at short notice, sweetheart. If you want to waste your spare time re-treading ground I’ve walked already, you go ahead” and then I stomped off like a disgruntled teenager and went for a walk by the river.
I think this is less about the amount it’ll cost us, and more about the fact that it wasn’t her that found it, so I guess I’ll have to endure a few days of her pissing about before she finally comes round to my way of thinking and we go for it.
Thankfully the World Cup has started and I have an open invitation to watch the matches with Ted, so while Philippa spends ages trying to prove me wrong, I can lose myself in the throes of a sport I’m not really interested in….
