How would you re-act

[Clifftop]

A lady visitor to town asked me where she could buy a bell,i suggested a shop and said they sell nice blue and white ceramic bells.She said no i want a big brass one, there was a slight pause and then she said my husband is going deaf.

The question i ask is how would you respond to your wife ringing the bell to get your attention.

Seems like a perfectly sensible idea to me, but then we already use a small high pitched bell for when one of us is out in the garden (large and L shaped), in the event of a phone call or just when a cuppa is ready or anything that needs to be brought to the others attention.

 

Probably depends on the relationship.

 

There might come a day when I superglue all the light switches in the on position, but that's another story.

Mrs. Pavlov I presume.

I was just about to say, if my misses had a bell that she rang every time she wanted me to come to bed, I'd soon turn into a human Pavlov's dog

If mine rung a bell every time she wanted me to go to bed I would think I was deaf!

If mine rang a bell every time she wanted me in bed, I'd think I'd died & gone to heaven!

If my wife started ringing a bell to get my attention, I'd soundproof the kitchen.

I'd make her get the beers in every time she rang the bell.
