women and locosts

whilst playing in the garage tonight, my wife walked in and laughed at me.
for some strange reason she thought me reusing an old alloy side panel was funny !

i replied and whats wrong with that?
she said why don't you just buy a new one like all the other bits you didn't need !
then a smart comment came out of her mouth "IS THAT THE LOCOST BIT ?"

think shes getting used to the idea of spending silly money on a piece of old scrap (her words not mine )

Iwas buying some bits at a fair

It was when I was building mine years ago and my wife was looking round with me at some bits. I picked something up and she said it didn't look like it would be SVA complacent. Many a true word spoken in error.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

When I bought the soda crystals in tesco for electrolisis (sp) she was real puzzled. The oldest child (she's a science freak) tried explaining to mam how it worked but to no avail. I let her see the before and after results, and now we seem to have a MAGIC BUCKET in our workshop

buy her a hat to wear !
thats if you want her in the car

thats why im not fitting a w/screen or heater

but she did buy me a dear stalkers hat for xmas (think she was taking the piss)

she loved going out in my old dutton !
as the exhaust ran down the n/s and heated all the fibre glass up and it was like having wicked central heating !

i just worried about it going up in flames (when i was in it )

My wife blankly refuses to go out in my car when it's finished... YAY!

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Who needs dinner when you can have an attractive lady warm your balls with a hairdryer.
