The missus and myself are closing in on our 1 year anniversary.
Last night I came home from a long and tiring day at work.
She presented me with a homemade meal and a homemade present.
Being a handy gal she has taken a design from Cpt. Hastings in an episode of Poiriot.
The colors on the photo is a bit wrong.
Main color is light desert khaki and the borders brown.

Aint I the lucky guy.
This is my favorite garment!


And, to make things even worse, a month ago she gave me this:

A lovely rib knitted pullover (the color is dark brown).

I am so thankful...
No choice but to treat her right! ;)

So we went for a nice walk in the woods outside Oslo.

A happy lady:

Wonderful. You have a very classy and comfortable look. :eusa_clap

Thank you ever so much Mr. Feraud.
It is really the missus who is to blame.

Last week in Copenhagen, we met an old female friend of mine.
She asked:

How do you get a man to change like that?

The missus replied:

Not difficult. You basically just buy him a classy hat, the rest just happens...
:rolleyes:

...you must be quite a fellow to get such treatment.

Your ensemble looks very nice, very classic.:eusa_clap

Thank you.
She is quite a lady...

Awaiting my Church shoes, and am restlessly pondering a 3-piece classic tweed.
Professor gone mad is one of my goals, I am of the lecturing kind (part-time teacher).

Wow, great line. Please tell your lovely "Missus" that she's not only talented, but she has a great style about her. She's a rare fine. My hat's off to you both.

Thank you Mr. Mathis.
I have delivered your message to the Missus.
She was thoroughly pleased and in total agreement, whilst huddling in the sofa fighting her cold and knitting (on her own garment).
