You can't just take it!

My husband embarrassed me the other night, nearly turned me into a criminal too, or an accessory at least.

We were walking past one of the charity shops in town, it was early evening, there was a pile of stuff outside their doorway as usual but one particular item was not usual and it made me stop and go back to do a double take. I was right, there was a large picture of a partially dressed woman holding what I mistakenly thought was a strap. She looked kind of Greek, sultry looking. 

P came back to see what had caught my attention, we soon realised it wasn't a strap, P thought it was a musical instrument possibly. He picked it up, I asked him what he was doing and he said he was going to take it, it was quite nice. I said no way, it's not coming in the house and anyway it's intended for the charity shop not for passers-by to help themselves. P said there was no notice saying not to take things, I really thought he was going to take it back to the car and I told him to put the bloody thing down, there were people in the street and they were looking.
Well he did put it down thank god, I don't know what gets into his head at times. I said if he really liked it he should come to the charity shop tomorrow and buy it but he better have some use for it that didn't involve hanging it on one of our walls at home. 

I very much doubt if he did, I've heard nothing since. I thought I might get spanked for challenging him like that, perhaps I should have more of a fuss over it:)

Have a good week.
