Sense of Humour for the Old

I suggested going to Hameediyah for lunch on Saturday. Then the following conversation ensued. It went something like this. Warning! I am not good at reporting conversations verbatim.

I said: I want to have kurma chicken.

Hubby said: What did you say?

I said: I want to have kurma chicken.

Hubby said: I thought you said "too much" chicken!

That only goes to show that we're getting old. My speech "lau hong" and his ear is no longer as sharp as it used to be.

We had a good laugh over our miscommunication. Betcha most couples would have ended up with an argument over whose fault it was. Sense of humour - that's a must for couples especially when age is catching up on them.
