You know that you are a Great British Dad when...
...even your Long-Suffering Wife (LSW) is handing over her life in her head for the home's gadgets.
INT. OUR CAR, NORTHBOUND ON THE M3 - AFTERNOON
I'M DRIVING. MY LONG-SUFFERING WIFE (LSW) IS PASSENGER SIDE.
LONG-SUFFERING WIFE (LSW):
I think... I would hand over some life-expectancy... just to have the Chromecast.
ME:
A Chromecast?
LSW:
Yes. I'll say it. The Chromecast is so good, I would trade it for some life-expectancy. It's that good.
ME:
What, 12 years? You'd lose 12 years for a Chromecast.
LSW:
No. I suppose there are boundaries on that.
ME:
Six months.
LSW:
No, not that much.
ME:
6 weeks. (OFF LSW) 6 to 10 weeks.
LSW:
That's a good deal.
ME:
You'd only be weeing in a bag anyway.
LSW:
And, it's for a gadget that'd be good for say, 10 years?
ME:
And it'd be used a lot through them.
A PAUSE.
LSW:
Course, all that wi-fi is going to kill us.
WE NOD.
