If my husband were ever to call me his ball and chain either privately or publicly he would get more than wet chips!

I always state THE Ball and Chain not my Ball and Chain.

Some years ago a man stated I had ordered my wife to do something. He was puzzled as to why all around collapsed in hysterical laughter after he made the comment.

It all looks like fine dining from here, I had toad in the hole last night for high tea with best British pork sausages with chips and onion gravy. Mrs bucket had old veggie sausages that taste like old rope. Not what I call fine dining.

totally agree toots , what a derogatory way to talk about your partner.

I like a laugh and a joke , and can be quite rude and crude at times , and my wife has a good sense of humour , but i would never dream of calling her that name either.

Wonder if he has her chained to the kitchen sink , and only lets her out to do some cleaning and shopping too?

Personally if I were to put gravy on chips lovingly prepared  by the Ball and Chain, I would  end up with a head injury.
(I don't like wet chips anyway.)

Its kind of like a big flat, doughy bun - perfect for filling with chips and gravy, or chips and mushy peas!!

Gosh no!    Listen chips on a plate with gravy just isn't done!  I can perhaps understand (but not dine on) a pie with chips as a side order in a separate dish but together? Never!!!!

What? Chips with gravy? That's unimaginable, stomach churning and mind blowing! YUK!

I was working in Montevideo and persuaded the manager to try vinegar on his fries instead of mayo.
He had that reaction at first but by the time I left half the canteen were having vinegar on their chips.
Don't knock it till you've tried it.

The lady in this video dips sweet potato chips in honey. (It is also interesting in that she collects the honey without using any protective equipment.)
