After the marriage you:-

Renounce all the above

Refuse to do the Berliltz course   you bought, and thereby not learn French, but agree to go to France.

Take on cretinous jobs so you look  like you are "really grafting hard" to everyone, and increase your debts so it looks like you are in real financial trouble, and cannot leave England as a result, and renounce all the above.

Follow through the conditions, and  prepare to  follow-through what you promised.

Refuse to go to France as your husband pays all the bills  for the house

 

   
Qn 21  

A year after your marriage you start to plan the divorce  and start shit stirring and  buttering people up to  get them on your side, by only painting half the story.  You start seeing:-   ( choose all that  apply )

Your brother - he is a Law Expert as he is a photographer and has a dubious ginger beard.  He'll  smash your husband's face in  given half a chance and has said so at least once.

Your Mum and Dad - you can tell them anything,  they think the son shines out of your behind - and they will believe all you say , especially "has the nasty man taken you to the beach on his boat again, poor little darling.! How horrible for you and the children."

Life Coach - you can tell her whatever you like, she is only listening as she is paid to

Doctor -      you can get this one on your side as she is also a woman and   she knows all the problems.   

Dog - the dog cannot speak  so is a qualified  behavioural  therapist  and two wags of the tail means the husband must be wrong to complain about your spending obsessions.

You should  spend less time seeing all the above  and get on with  the housework, and ensuring  that you live to your budget.  You should seek help for your  spending disorders and really sort it out.                              

 

   
Qn 22  

You have only 5 'O' levels  and maths is not one of them.  You also have no 'A' Levels.

I am easily impressed, and  easily led - these other friends  do not want to  go the beach nor sail either  so this is fine

I want  people to admire me and  want to copy them at all times, especially I want people to think I am wealthy.

I avoid meeting intelligent people, as they will see how shallow and thick I really  am. I prefer to meet people who do nothing  energetic  but sit on the phone all day, watch TV  and  lunch all day. 

I should not argue about where I am shopping  for everything, as I am in debt and my shopping obsessions are only making things worse.

   
Qn 23  

The Goverment  request that children walk to school as far as possible, as  children are getting obese through being taken  everywhere in a car.  The husband agrees with this and  bans use of the car to  take them to school, which is 15 minutes walk away, although it is 5 minutes by car.   What do you  do?  Choose all that apply.

"Say I don't give a damn, I will take them there in a taxi instead", there and back each day, thereby running up our debts even more  at £10  each day on taxis.

Tell the children to lie,  saying that they have not been in a taxi

Get out of the taxi around the corner so the husband does not see

You should walk   everywhere as far as possible, parking is a nightmare in London  and congestion is bad enough, plus short journeys by car are the worst as the car does not properly warm up  and is therefore cold.

 

   
Qn 24  

You are the husband. You  take your children to school more than the wife as you enjoy the walk,  and enjoy walking the dog, who also  likes  being with the children as they like taking her on the lead. You  take the  children to school on Monday in the pouring rain, with macs and hats and wellie  boots on.  A fat woman  who lives in your same street 5 minutes from the old school mocks you  the next day, from her car, for seeing you  trudging through the rain with the umbrella  being blown inside out the day before.  She wants  to buy a new laptop. What do you  say?

"Yes I  really should take my car   as it is 500 yards from home  and the children do not need the walk."

"I want to keep fit and I want the children to  have a bit of exercise  before school as this tires them out a little bit." 

"No wonder you are such a fat overweight cow, driving everywhere  means  you don't do any exercise  nor do they !"

Say nothing and  totally ignore  her and just feel put down by the grossly obese, fat pig. Consider  becoming overweight yourself, as  this is the way the world is going, the fat people  will take over in the end.

Advise her to  buy a new grey colour laptop to match her grey flabby skin.

 

   
Qn 25  

You are grossly obese and cannot  walk very far, without seriously puffing and panting.  You had been given a local gym membership but only went once, preferring the easier  task of eating a snack in their snackbar.   You  decide to  make the children hold on to the push chair, as this slows them from walking too fast, and means you do not puff and pant so much.  The husband  refuses to let them do this to him, as this slows him down  to the point where everyone is walking at a snail's pace on the pavement. You scream at the husband. The husband  suggests that  "You need to lose 4 stone  and take more exercise, like this you will be able to walk faster."  What do you do?  Choose all that apply

Scream at the husband and tell him to fuck off

Continue to go out for lunch every day with the girlies.....

Accuse husband of being unsafe with the children, as not letting them hold the push chair on the pavement means they are in grave danger of being run over  by cars and buses

The husband is right and I should really take notice

 

   
Qn 26  

The weather is bad and everyone is inside watching the telly like retards on a Saturday afternoon.  You had been to the market  first thing  in the morning, to get some burger mince  but then it started raining. The husband is in his office doing his VAT.  It stops raining  and the husband says  to the children that he will take them out as he has to get something from the car park where the car is  parked.  The children leap up in excitement.  What do you do?

Tell the children  to sit back down no-one is going out.

Scream at husband  "this is kidnap"  and create a scene on the doorstep, repeating  the word  kidnap to  anyone within earshot

Let the children go out for a walk with the dog to get some air

Ask the husband to  change the exhaust on the car as he only did this last week  and it must need taking off and doing again.

None of the above

 

   
Qn 27  

Choose  the best expression that best describes you

I have to be adored by everyone as I am   fat and I know it

I have to phone everyone constantly as I am very insecure and have  to be at the top of everyone's thoughts

I can't make  my own decisions and have to ask everyone else their views so I can  then be foul to my husband.

I am unpretentious  and just like the simple things in life, which happen  to suit me fine

I was only  surrealist's daughter but telephone box

   
Qn 28  

You go out all afternoon  after school because you cannot be bothered to cook tea  at home. You think it is  clever to run your debts up even more,  most nights of the week, quite often coming back at 7pm. Husband says this is too late as he never sees the children, because, when  you come back  you  put the  kids straight in bed without a bath   so you do not miss East Enders.  Which is  the right description  of what you have done?

It is right to put the children to bed  without a  bath

It is right that  everyone  has to revolve around EastEnders and other 5.5  hours of television programmes.

Even though I am indebt to the tune of £12,000 I want to get this up to  £13,000  - if I can  as I know husband's  father will pay it off as he is loaded.

Husband is  right and this should not happen more than once a week.

Husband  should load  Microsoft Access as this will help him have Access to see the  children in the evenings

"Hello nice to meet you again  Gary and Viv,  thank you for the Easter Eggs  for the children " !

Say nothing and just pout and sulk as you are away from your Mummy and Daddy whom you can manipulate.

 

   
Qn 30

Qn 38  

Your inlaws give their son a nice second hand car. You are a named driver, having no policy of your own.   What should be your philosophy?

Drive it carefully and try to maintain the full no claims bonus  as insurance is  expensive enough without having a no claims discount.

Drive whilst on the phone, have four minor accidents within 3 years, tailgate  and terrorise everyone, in the "Look at me get out of my way - I am in a Range Rover " attitude. Drive flat out around the locality, jerk to a stop  with  children inside, drive in bus lanes and get photographed.

It is a no blame bonus not a no claim bonus  -  this  makes it all fine.

Try and write the car off  as you do not like it anyway and you would prefer a provincial Volvo like your beardy brother.

Pay more respect in this department and take the necessary actions

Forget it and go to the Doctor everytime, the Doctor will prescribe lots of drugs and you can tell everyone your kid is on  medication again, obtaining you lots of  sympathy and adoration  like everyone else's kids who are always ill.
