If 8 of you were dining at your in laws and there were only 6 dining room chairs.

Which option would you prefer ?

A. Take 2 of your dining room chairs, so you had the correct number.
B. Let your wife and sister-in-law, eat lunch/dinner sitting on camodes ?

I only ask, because my good wife & I have a difference of opinion.

  • When we had too many guests and too few dining chairs we'd just get the two chairs used at the Computers

  • A is the sensible answer but if I faced with this dilemma at my in laws I'd offer to help out by eating my dinner on my own in the shed.

    C. Get so smashed before dinner that you're left to sleep on the sofa and you don't have to speak to the in laws.

    Ok. I'll be honest, the wife has gone ballistic, because I took 2 dining room chairs over & is demanding that I bring them back, because she wants to sit on a camode.

    Go figure.

    Edit; previous comments retracted in the light of the fuller facts :disappointed:

  • You could always ask the club if you could borrow the sofa.

    Go figure.

    I don't understand this at all. Am I missing the joke? She wants to sit on a tall potty in public whilst eating her turkey?

    Well, if the lid's open I suppose it cuts down on the trips to the loo #enlargedprostate
  • Surely if you have been invited to eat, your host would be expected to provide seating.
    I would act as if I knew nothing about the the lack of chairs and when it comes time to sit down I would make sure me and the good wife are two of the first six to get to the table.
    Or you could all play musical chairs.

    Especially after a few pre dinner pints. Once that seal is broken this would be quite convenient.

    Yep. Her mum's had a stroke & is recovering. There are 2 camodes in the house & my wife is insistent that she wants to sit on a camode, (with the seat on) to eat her Xmas meal. So basically it's like a wheelchair, rather than sit on a dining room chair. She says that I'm mad for taking over dining room chairs and is demanding I bring them back.

    I'll never understand the fairer sex.

    A is a no brainer. As is (no-offence meant) anyone who would choose B.

    I think this is probably the strangest reason I've ever read for someone to get upset, male or female.
