In a world first a woman from Rochdale who told her husband that she was “fine” has turned out to really be “fine”. Genuinely she’s “fine’. We didn’t believe it either.
Barbara Dickinson, 35 and a bit, told her husband Steve that she was “fine” on Tuesday when he told her he was thinking of going to the cinema on Friday with his mate Pete.
Steve told The Rochdale Herald: “I’ve been sleeping with one eye open for the last few days if I’m honest. It was a bit of a jolt. Nobody wants to hear that their wife is ‘fine’ with your decisions. Last time she said that I lost a toe. You can’t blame me for being wary.”
“But I’ve checked a bunch of times this week, every fifteen minutes or so, and she insists that she really is “fine” with me going for a beer and movie with Pete on Friday.”
When asked for comment Barbara added: “I’m sick of the sight of Steve if I’m honest. Getting rid of him for a few hours on Friday is ideal. I was thinking of asking him to piss off so I could have some peace and quiet.”
“This gives me a chance to put all of his stuff on the lawn, change the locks and tell the kids daddy is going to be living somewhere else now.”
“It really is fine.”
