Needless to say, they opened it on the journey home 
Might be worth a go  | Ah, leave it to you to think of a fab idea!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | so i put ann-marie's idea forward and he didn't say no.....which is a start! he seems to be warming to the idea that if i want to know then we can find out but he said to stop going on about it so my mouth has been tightyly shut!!mummy_channon he wouldn't let me just find out cuz he knows i wouldnt keep it a secret so it would be both of us or not! |

| Did you decide what to do?
I have a very stubborn hubby too so know what it's like - he desperately wants to find out and I'm quite happy to go along with that.
However, if I did have a strong opinion I definately wouldn't let him get all his own way - your view is just as important and he should respect this.
Hope you are able to find a solution you are both happy with. | | | | Status: Offline
