Quite right too Allan, if I may say so!!
Many years ago I bought my OH the tiniest book (2" square) 'For Husbands'. ;-) He came across it today and was chuckling and spluttering as he re-read it.

It is full of little quotes: eg

'Before criticising your wife's faults
you must remember
that it may be these very defects
which prevented her from getting
a better husband than the one she married.'

I find the little gems in it keep him on his toes!! ;-) ;-) :-)

Before I married my late husband I was his partner, too old to be a girlfriend and I really dislike the term lady friend. My husband had a business and a business partner. Not the same meaning as just partner. If anyone invited us out and I wasn't there he would say that he would just check with the queen before saying yes.

I also have an ex husband but have never minded being known as Mrs ?

Researching:
Matthew and Jane Elwood who had my great great grandfather Francis Edward Elwood baptised in 1807 at Horsham Sussex. There is no sign of Matthew or Jane from this date and my great great grandfather was brought up as Francis Edward Elwood MITCHELL
