A MAN proved right in a minor argument with his girlfriend is living in dread of the price he will have to pay.
Tom Logan’s momentary euphoria at being correct quickly evaporated and was replaced by horror when he realised how stupid he had been.
He said: “Last night Emma said ‘Don’t forget the plumber’s coming to service the boiler on Wednesday’ but I was sure it was the week after. So, like a twat, I said so.
“We spent a minute or so contradicting each other before I sealed my fate by providing incontrovertible evidence – a text from the plumber confirming the date and time.
“I realised immediately it was a mistake. That night there was an icy coldness in the way we sat silently fiddling with our phones. When we went to bed she sulkily went to sleep straight away and I realised there was no chance of a shag for the foreseeable future, maybe forever.
“I should’ve kept quiet then rung the plumber and made him fit in with the incorrect date Emma thought it was. That’s the normal, correct thing to do. Now I’ve ruined everything.”
Logan’s girlfriend Emma Bradford said: “I admit I was wrong, but that in no way justifies Tom thinking he is right.
“When the plumber arrives I ought to shag him right there in our bed while Tom looks on impotently. That’ll wipe the smug grin off his face, although to be honest he’s mainly looked terrified since yesterday.”
