Yes, so important for maintaining a healthy relationship which is why I have donated today to come to the NIA Birmingham with my wife to see Strictly live tour rather than spending all day in the garage! Make sure you make your partner happy today

i think i'm right in saying that when i am out in the garage working on the cars, that in itself earns brownie points as i am out of her way! she can then get on with whatever women do indoors.

Yes garages give a whole new meaning to "getting the cold shoulder", which I did lying on floor bolting up torsion bar over the weekend.

I'd probably have been divorced if I'd gone out to work in the garage on the day this thread was started. Lynda was giving birth at the time. I did have to pop out to the garage once though as I had a still sealed box of vinyl gloves and the midwife had forgotten hers.

Hello BruceK
Do you go to the Lincoln Branch meetings? If so come and say hello to the new people with the baby at the next one, we might have met you last time but met so many people the names have all blurred
Philip (& Lynda and Elliot)

We'll be there tonight, bringing my father-in-law too as he's just moved up. Quite the invasion

I have a sofa to move so will probably be a bit late getting there - hopefully see you later though
