Mick asked Paddy to come home for dinner, and to help him with cutting his rather overgrown garden hedge.
They went straight to Micks home when they finished work.
When they got to the front door, Mick went straight up to his wife, gave her a big hug and told her how beautiful she was and how much he had missed her at work.
When they sat for their meal, he complimented his wife on her excellent cooking, kissed her and told her how much he loved her.
When they finished the meal, they went outside to attack the hedge. Paddy told Mick that he was surprised that he fussed so much over his wife?
Mick said that he' d started this about six months ago, it had revived their marriage, and things couldn't be better.
Paddy thought he'd give it a go.
When he got home, he gave his wife a massive hug, kissed her and told her that he loved her. His wife burst into tears. Paddy was confused and asked why she was crying. She said, 'This is the worst day of my life. First, little Sean fell off his bike and twisted his ankle. Then, the washing machine broke and flooded the basement. While I was cleaning up the mess, the meal burned.... And now, you come home bloody drunk!'
