“You are so clever” My wife said,
How could I argue with her,
So I just smiled and said “Of course.”
“I am so lucky to have you” she replied,
I wouldn’t disagree,
So I said “Of course you are”.
“And you are so modest” she sighed,
“No I am not” I replied,
“With qualities like mine,
I do not need modesty”

Laughter is so important in life.
too true it is....
Actually there's an underlying truth in this - be proud of who you are and what you have achieved BUT don't flaunt it.
Thank you Michael, very true.
Am still chuckling at this read Andy - - Inner satisfaction coming to the fore in a loving relationship can raise a few laughs and thanks for sharing it my (modest) friend.
I am gald that you are chuckling Fay, as I have said, laughter in life is very important.
Yes, and 'No one is perfect - except me' we may say! The we need to eat humble pie. How do we make it?!
Take three pounds of 'umbles, half a pound misheards, a pint of watered down self righteousness, boil vigorously until there is nothing left except the praise of others towards you.
She does knoweth how to tickle your fancy, -
Who's your Daddy? Who's your Daddy? SHE IS.
Good one
Of course she does Suresh.
How far do you travel to find a milliner who can handle your requirements?
I have yet to get out of the room to be able to find one.
You might not be modest but at least you are sincere. We are what we think we are. It pays to believe in yourself. Nice one Gold.
Thank you marijoy.
