Yippee, my first \"I hate GW\" thread

Ok, you all know about the stirling work Shawn RL\'s doing with Jose and Angel and how we were all invited to help by sending some stuff over. Well, being a bit lazy and phobic of post offices, I decided to take the easy route and order some stuff from GW USA to be delivered direct to him. Order done, delivery address entered, all paid for and all looked good.

...until yesterday, when I\'m told that someone tried to deliver a parcel to my home. This then makes my wife curious as we have an anniversary coming up and she thought it must be a surprise present for her. When they redelivered it today, she was a bit upset to see it was from Games Workshop. She\'s not as supportive of my hobby as other other halves so I tend not to tell her about most of my purchases (I know, I\'m a wuss!) and as she\'s tight with money at the best of times. So now she\'s flying off the handle about me spending money on people I\'ve never met, why do I keep secrets from her? yadda yadda yadda!

So basically, I\'m in for another severe earbashing when I get home and the kids didn\'t get my contribution.

Oh well, there\'s always the drink... :drunk:

Is it post offices you\'re phobic of? Or the line of smelly, Worther\'s original-sucking coffin dodgers? lol

Well, Obviously GW made the mistake, you should be able to take it straight back to your local shop and explain the problem.

@ Dan - A bit of both and GW can\'t fix the main problem - Mrs Bulp!

@ Roger - I\'m going to show her Shawn\'s posts about the kids but I think she\'s going to play the \"keeping secrets\" card rather than the details.

Either way, it\'s been nice knowing you all...

Edit: BTW I have emailed GW to ask what went wrong and what can be done.

God women can be so unfair. Just let her rant and then some time a week from now when she\'s looking for yet another dress for some stupid charity event remind her of this and that she has a closet full of close and you\'ll win THAT fight.

like men don\'t do that too. I can\'t tell you how many years I\'ve heard about the one or two (because I\'m perfcet see) things I\'ve done wrong. ;)

Edit: I\'m not a big fan of the average woman BTW. I think we\'re bitchy creatures that feed on men\'s souls for entertainment. Not all of them, but I live in California and run across more than my fair share of gold diggers. The few you have here are the gems and you all should be gratefull for us. So there.

You mean the ones he\'s found out about ;)

I\'m sure it\'s been scientifically proven that Women still lead the field in this area though. It\'s probably hormonal!

Men cant win arguments agaginst our other halves, its impossible we may be right but we are never the right sort of right to win an argument with women.

Its like my mom taught me after many fall outs with women, just dont argue back unless its very very important and even then have the flowers and chocolates in the car ready to say sorry.

Womens mind\'s are like Stealth Bombers when it comes to are argument.
They have ways and means of slipping in nuances into the conversation which have nothing to do with the current situation, but only dig a deeper grave for the fella.

\"So Will, fair enough, you have a point but....you left the toilet seat up a month ago....explain THAT!\"

Whereas men\'s minds are like council estate run Ford Escorts.

\"Well, erm...yea, I, er....kinda..Forgot?\"

Liz, the ladies on this site are gems I agree they are one of a kind but having spent several years as a hormone hostage I only had to breath to be wrong and I have never tried to be perfect where is the fun in that :D

billy i feel your pain i truly do. the wife here gets on my case all time for spending money on something and then leaving it sitting there and not painting it. but then i buy more and my collection keeps getting bigger. then she complains that when i am painting that i need to spend more time with the family. all this while pregnant mind you. so i have come to a realization....during my lunch break i paint and respond on forums...i then take a half hour after work and paint again at work. then i go home. do nothing else but hang with the fam....all is well that ends well.....

just remember keep shaking that head up and down and you will be just fine. lol

Billy I hope you sort it all out and that she comes around to your way of thinking (probably got more chance of pigs flying) :D

But remember there are apparently 5 secrets to a successful relationship.

1. It is important that a woman helps you around the house and has a job.

2. It is important that a woman makes you laugh.

3. It is important to find a woman you can count on and doesn\'t lie to you.

4. It is important that a woman is good in bed and loves making love to you.

5. It is VERY important that these four women never meet
