Smug Married: modern romance
Keris Stainton's weekly column on married life...
What is romance? Flowers? Candles? Dinners for two? Diamonds?
Er. Well, if that's the case then David's never been romantic. There were candles in the very beginning (but they left wax up the wall, which we had to scrape off with a knife and they left an oily stain). There are sometimes flowers (but if I want flowers, I buy them for myself). There are dinners out, but we spend most of the time talking about our son. There have never been diamonds (my engagement ring cost £33) but that's never bothered me one jot.
How about this from David: "After the film's finished, let's go upstairs and you can shave my neck." No?

Hee! I *literally* laughed out loud at the neck shaving - great column, Keris!
