A mate from work was browbeaten into buying an expensive piece of jewellery for his girlfriend, a week or two ago. I told him that indulging her in this way was a grievous error, and that it would now get worse.
He has just been enrolled in ballroom dancing classes.

And buying lavish gifts for girlfriends is never a mistake......we will be eternally gratefull (well at least for a month) and be more than happy to show our appreciation. 😉
Just remember that if you happen to be a lousy shopper cash is a reasonable replacement for a gift.
Jewlery is NEVER a bad idea! Fake jewlery will get you stabbed in the groin.

However, after screwing up catastrophically we never went back. The carnage has to be spectacular though, start small with minor clumsiness and climax with wiping out a punch bowl, the instructor and crushing an old lady.

Originally posted by Hand of HecateI think this plan would require little acting on my mate's part. If he hasn't already managed this I will be sure to pass on the advice.

By the way, did the old bird recover?

Originally posted by dylFortunately, I just clipped her, but, I took out the instructor with an elbow in the side of the neck. I also managed to pull most of the muscles in my lower back and wrench my knee, but, it was worth it. Very little acting was required on my part either, I'm not exactly grace personified and stepping on both of my feet at the same time was an easy thing to pull off.
