Too Good Not To Share

"When I ask directions, don't use words like 'east'."

Recently, my wife Belinda and I visited a town about 30 miles from home in order to do some shopping. She was driving as we were leaving from shopping, and I suggested that a shorter way home would be to go west on Rt. 101 and the north on Rt. 366.

When Belinda missed the turn to go on Rt. 101, I asked, "Why didn't you take a left back there?"

Belinda replied, and I quote verbatimly, "You're rattlin' off all these routes to me and all you had to say was 'Turn left at the ice cream place!'"

That's how it works in our house, except the exact opposite way round.. I'm the one with the Sat Nav brain... you could lose my husband in an empty room, he understands nothing about East & West, North or South, even street names he has no clue about, he doesn't even know the name of the road next to ours ....so when giving him directions I have to guide him past pubs... Right at the Red Lion.. left at The Green Man... straight past the Saracens Head, and the White Horse... , and it's 2 doors down from the Nags Head...
