| 299145 | 2004-12-02 09:38:00 | Recently I noticed I was about to hit 1000 posts. Not a big deal, but on principle ( because I'm still a newb ) I hoped I could maybe answer someone else's question for that. Personal satisfaction etc... That hasn't worked out. In fact, I have current computer problems - though no time to deal with right now because of family illness stuff. What I do have is a wedding anniversary tomorrow Friday 3 December. No, it's not one of the biggies that end with 00 or 05. But what intrigues me is that my "really simple "celebration choice for the day is regarded as "weird "by some friends. So I thought I'd put this thread in for fun. Which of you has celebrated any anniversary ( Doesn't have to be marriage) in a way that could be thought "weird" by others? And tomorrow night I'll say what quiet stuff we actually did... . |

| 299148 | 2004-12-02 09:47:00 | Hmm..... Anniversaries around here tend to be me spending large amounts of money on ornamental rocks that are then stored in a container…until perhaps the next anniversary. Me thinks next year Mrs Metla can celebrate by buying me a new video card. ……………Yeah Right. |

| 299149 | 2004-12-02 09:50:00 | I can't complain I have a wife who has on occasion purchased games for me, not up to a new video card but you never know.....there is hope... | Sb0h (3744) | ||
| 299150 | 2004-12-02 10:03:00 | Not so wierd Laura, but on our tenth, my wife kicked me out of the house even though I had given up a days fishing in honour of he anniversary. So I went to visit a friend and finding him absent went to the beach near his place and managed to bludge a couple o Crayfish off a couple of divers who had just come out of the water. The atmosphere changed when I presented herself with crayfish with coriander lime butter for dinner. Yummmmmm!!!! |

| 299151 | 2004-12-02 10:07:00 | Hi metla Well, I'm into rocks. After all, Central Otago schist is on our property... But unless the feller with the excavator puts them in place, they might as well stay in the container - for all the use they are to us women. Mr Laura's excavator has done more work for the neighbours than my hoped-for rock garden. Maybe Mrs Metla has the same problem..? |

| 299152 | 2004-12-02 10:18:00 | well....i was kind of referring more to the type that sparkle.... But that does remind me of when i was a kid and my mother asked for a lazyboy for her birthday and my father bought her a lawnmower,...... That went down badly. |

| 299154 | 2004-12-02 10:28:00 | Metla: I had parents like that,also. How did our mothers survive? Must've been very tough - or very weak women? Hard to judge which by now - by today\s standards. |
