LOL, too funny! Halwa, you should consider writing a book. You have a a really good sense of humor.

I agree with RupayHalwa that it boils down to insecurity. Individuals who are confident and at peace with themselves don't feel the need to harp on and on about money or the material things they have.

Aaah, I know right! If only they could hear those thoughts.. they'd be so shocked that no one actually gives a damn about how much £ they have/spend

RupayHalwa: I TOTALLY agree lol! Your location says South East.. so nope, we're West.. but mannn, theres more of them?! How many designer dustbins is that going to cost us?!

Now this is a totally new one. Never heard that being snobby, is this in Pakistan u mean?

I suppose it is recent trend in desis wives both here and back in Pakistan. I mean comon, your husband has a name so use it.
I don't know if it is snobbish or not but it sure is annoying.

I like this thread - this is so us (human nature and its shortcoming of not being able to say no to bragging, showing off, etc) unfortunately. Chipkali, my aunt is just like that as well - tells us all about her shopping extravaganzas and we can't make it more clear how uninterested we are. Wonder why people do such things.
