Lost the wife!
She is refusing to come in the house

I have to laugh, she is at the edge of the garage, with the up & over door open, sitting on my bike, whilst looking lovingly at her bike, and then at her new (for her) purchase of today.

Talk about January sales fever apparently we have to have a naming ceremony for the little shiny 4 wheeled object on the drive.

Have tried to entice her in with chocolate, and also wine - but she has been happy for me to 'waiter' the stuff outside for her

Alan (happily having use of the computer for a change)

Its a Smart

I really tried to get her to have a good old Jap car, with a meaty engine. She does like driving them (the fast imports), but wanted something lots smaller for the local commute and so she can let mates park more bikes in the drive.

Mind you, she threw it along on the way home - cruising at 80 all the way up the motorway - and having now been able to take it for a short spin, I found the 600 inc turbo was quite pokey - but Im not keen on the semi-automatic it has.

If she parks it properly, I'll be able to get the van in the garden too

RHD? I thought you sat in the middle like a McLaren.

Does it look like this ... ?
