This is the 4th time I've read a thread like this on Mumsnet. It's either the partner opening the door to chat or calling the kid in to chat.

Partners daughter back home for summer from uni. She comes home after 11pm, we are in bed having sex, he jumps under covers and shouts her through for a chat because we were away the night before and he hadn't seen her since getting back.
Lying there under the duvet making small talk makes me incredibly uncomfortable not to mention frustrated because after the chat its game over.
He thinks im being unreasonable as he hadn't seen her. I think its unnecessary, she lives independently in term time and she certainly wouldn't call him through for a chat if she was lying in bed with her boyfriend.
Aibu

This thread is exactly what you would expect. A mix of those who agree that it's a really good amount, and those who spend £120k a month in Waitrose so it would just be pocket change they've found down the back of the sofa

I did like this one who came along with a load of completely irrelevant information just to make sure we all know that she's so much better than us

120k wouldn't keep me in bedding for a month *tinkly laugh*

That Bagel poster is definitely bullshitting. I'm the same age and "We holiday well" and "I've a [car]" is not in my lexicon, that's just insane. Would hazard a guess that this is yet another lonely weirdo projecting their own insane ideal of what "successful" looks like (young-ish and speaks like Barbara Cartland) to... impress randos on the internet I guess? Sad.
