I came home from work to find...

[dirk diggler]

...My girl had bought a lovely new bedspread. She knew I would like it because 'It's got Scottish tratan design'



I just couldn't find the words to explain the error of her ways.

Where did you get this?
Market.
Phew! Give to your brother.
Why?
Umm....

What nightmares have you came home to that were a result of consultation-less decision making?

[Kurgen]

That's Burberry, musta costa fortune !!!!

[alitongkat]

wondering, what would have satisfied dirks design ambitions...

daisies or a barbie theme?
(long time no see anything with john players special...)

[robuzo]

Poor thing, thought she could please you and get in touch with her inner Chav. All bedspreads are gray in the dark.

[nidhogg]

That's Burberry,

Gotta dink both your mancards for knowing what is "burberry" is and more to the point, caring.

Honestly, who cares about bedspreads?????

[TizMe]

My Mrs had the house painted once while I was away.

The wondered why I didn't think the purple and green job was atractive when I returned.

I'm really not that fussy, something like this would have sufficed:

[alitongkat]

its good, even though dirk might have stored some traumatic memories related to the pattern...

worse looks that puke-green paint on the wall behind the bed...

Anything goes, does it?

Honestly, don't know. I looked at the first photo and thought whats wrong with that. It was only Kurgens pointing out that it was burberry clicked the link to "chav", and the only way I know the burberry/chav link is through jokes. I would not actually be able to tell you a piece of burberry.

For bedspreads, I generally go with "blue". Thats about it.

Yes, you are right. What is it with the green? My last house was even worse.

That's right, who cares about bedspreads? You can have any colour of bedspread as long as it's blue! Haha.

Not sure where you're from Mate so fair play, but most people here will confirm, the burberry is pretty bad.

[alitongkat]

must be you, normally there isnt much green...?

but there is everywhere that ugly red-brownish color...
on furniture, on walls, doors, windowframes... very common in asia...
its not the natural wood color, its painted...

[harrybarracuda]

Start worrying if you come home to this...

[alitongkat]

looks like a desperate attempt to spice up things a bit, gerbil...
possible, you are somewhat boring or lacking "motivation"?

[nidhogg]

yeah. Expat brit, but 25 years out of the country so the whole "chav" "burberry" stuff was after my time. I did spend several years a while ago wondering about "shell suits" which were after my time as well.

Probably just as well I missed it all.

[dirk diggler]

Did you leave because of the tie-dye era? haha

[dirk diggler]

Wife has just ordered this online:

I could definitely handle that!

[Gazza]

Any dark colour for a spreadsheet is good. They help to hide the stains.

Burberries? I thought they were furry gremlin-like dolls. Don't know what the hell Chavs are. I've only just found out what a Pikey is (I think).

Shit stains maybe but not spunk

[Boon Mee]

As soon as I understand the answer to the following question, I'll post it in the "You've Been In Thailand Too Long" thread:

What is it with Thais and this round pillow-thing they have to stick under the bedspread like some giant dick? To my farang brain, it looks stupid.

^ Ah the 'bolster' - Weird, but you eventually get so used to it that when you have to sleep without one it can be disconcerting.
