Kebab, and Indian Giving

So it was Friday night, and I fancied a Kebab, so I got £5 cash back from Tesco (I bought 2 pints of semi-skimmed and some Carlsberg Export if you were wondering) and strolled back to the car. I told my other half I was going to get a kebab, but she put her foot down, saying I didn't need one. Her argument that I had eaten Steak Pie, Chips and mushy peas about 2 hours previously was, I admit, a good one, BUT it was payday, and that’s kind of where my argument ended, so I went home, empty handed :(

So Saturday morning comes round and my girlfriend is going into the city, I offer her the £5 I didn't need to spend yesterday evening and tell her to bring me something nice back. She returned several hours later, somehow not spending the £5 and not bringing me anything nice back - other than herself she was quick to point out.

Saturday evening and we're watching The Cube on ITV, we've not had tea, she wasn’t particularly hungry, so I suggest she returns the fiver and I go buy myself a kebab - big mistake - I am then lectured on Indian Giving, and how you can't ask for things back or expect something of equal value when you give something away.

I should of pointed out that kebabs are from Turkey and therefore that rule shouldn't apply and I want my five pounds back, but it's took me until Monday lunchtime to think of that, oh well only 4 and a half days till Friday evening, and possibly Kebab for tea that night
