That piece of information was not in the rule book

[Kevin B]

Where in the marriage instruction manual does it say you cannot wash your tool and parts in the Dishwasher, she got the **** but jee there shiny now...

[101RRS]

I wouldn't want to put my tool in the dishwasher - might be a bit painful :o

Are you talking from experience ?

[SBD4]

There are many rules that are not in the rule book and those that are, are subject to change without notice.

I got caught red handed using the bread board on the kitchen table. But rather than cutting bread, I was hammering in new wheel bearings on a trailer hub. Oh the look on her face..........:twisted::twisted::twisted:

[sheerluck]

Well, there was a queue for the shower that day........

The blisters went down in no time at all. :eek:

[Bigbjorn]

Using the oven to powder coat small parts is apparently a proscribed activity also.

[Modelsp]

If you really want to see smoke out of her ears
try washing the dogs in the spar bath
Dogs loved it.
:D:D:D

The trick is not to ask and not to tell. I do this all the time when SWMBO is out.:)

Brevel sandwich maker/ toaster makes a great bearing heater. Another use of those micro waves, dryning socks etc.

mother; "whats that bang?!:o"

me; "oh, nothing....:angel:"

mother; "didn't sound like nothing...:mad:"


(opens oven door)

mother; "what the ....! :o:mad::mad::mad:"

this was the conversation that took place at an early age after i was discovered heating honda xr600 crankcase halves to remove the crank bearings....when you lay them on the side and heat to 150 degrees, they just drop out onto the oven rack:D

Years ago when i was an apprentice,scratching around trying to make a few bob i used to get the compressers out of old fridges at the dump.I would use them in refurbished cabinets.Often the system would have been open so i used to put them in the oven(on a low setting) when my parents were out to get any moisture out of them.

Eventually did get caught and to my amazement they weren't that worried.

[Disco Muppet]

There's an instruction manual/rule book?
I've just been making it up as I go along, pretty sure she does the same! :p

[Kevin B]

I have also on occasion thrown the paint rollers in the wshing machine with the towels to get them good and clean, apparently thats a no no as well, my argument was the fabric softener makes it easier to use them next time..

From your statements I can safely assume there is no band of kryptonite......EERRRR GOLD! that binds the pair of you? When such an event occurs she will drag the rule book out and smite you! :D :D It is there, always there ;) Lets go out, lets go out in a blaze of glory................! For all good things must end......................:Rolling:

Besides, she can smite me as much as she likes, I've never been much for rules, so long as they don't say anything about Land Rovers I'm okay :D :p

[schuy1]

HMMM, :eek:That bit about smiting you all she likes could be read in that you derive a certain pleasure from being smited? along with leather and metal thingys?:twisted:An interesting union!:D

My other half had our wedding date engraved on the inside of my wedding band so I would have no excuse to forget.

Should've had it engraved on the outside.;)

I tried that when I was drunk once, I got 3rd degree burns on my plums

You don't normally get made aware of the rule book and associated content (by her) until after the union is complete. We can make you aware of it's existence but the contents are a subject unique to not only females but your own particular make/model.

So does that mean that the default resets like "Chocolate", "Wine", and the "Yes Dear" command won't work unless I use model specific titles?

[mattadelaide1975]

I have been under the impression for the last 13 years that there are only 2 rules:

Rule 1 - The wife is always right even when she is wrong
Rule 2 - See Rule 1.

Are you all trying to tell me that there are more rules, and my wife has been hiding them from me? What the????:eek:

Cheers

more correctly defined as subsets of the 2 basic rules in that they always point back to the mains. Such as rule 211(a) para96(c) dont wash engine parts in dishwasher.
If you say why? it is referred back to the main rule- Rule 1!:eek:
Get it now?:confused:

[lewy]

engine sleeves for the fergi in the freezer come to mind.

[Saitch]

I got caught melting lead in the oven to pour into my sinker moulds.
She came down heavy on me!

[bob10]

Take a tip from a married man of 38 years, buy a new dishwasher, with all the bells & whistles, put the old one in the shed, wash what you want in it. Even the dog, if he can hold his breath long enough. Just make sure of a couple of things. It has to be the right colour, suit the décor, & the hard part, it must be her idea ;) Bob

[clubagreenie]

Absolutely.

The resets have their own variants known as milk/dark (and the sub-variants by %), red/white and "Yes [insert applicable term of endearment]".

Program queries such as the notorious "Does this make me look fat?", "Does my bum look big in this" and the response "It takes the focus off your face" will result in the system throwing back a BSOD (Blue Sack of Denial). Thus situation will only be remedied by judicious redirection of previously allocated Land Rover project funding to the newly created "save my relationship and give me back a sex life portfolio".

I don't have a problem with those queries, I frequently get cascade faults of "roll eyes" and "shake head", probably due to the root coding of "Toyota Family".
Software seems to be a bit temperamental though.
Frequently encounter "Why don't you talk to me" error, finds ghost faults when system is actually in sleep mode.
No issues with hardware though.

Hmm I must be blessed as mine hasn't objected to bearings in freezer,discs in oven or parts in dishwasher admittedly after close inspection.
then it has been 44 years so I already know she is a keeper.

[scarry]

Mine had a winge today when she came across a two bags of cut up unskinned roo tails in the freezer that i had brought back for the dogs.:D

If they were skinned i recon she wouldn't have noticed......

[Disco Muppet]

Ran into an error today.
Began uploading "Fixing Discovery 2.Doc", which encountered no problems. Began preparing script for "Upgrade Discovery 2" in order to prevent future issues, repeatedly came up against "Why-not-leave-it-as-it-is" error code, Tried running "Explain-vehicle-modification" script, returned "wasting-money-lecture".
At which point I became frustrated and tried "I-do-what-I-want". Now not getting any response.

You stuffed up there Muppet, you told her what you were doing. Tell them nothing! In twenty years I've been caught out a couple of times, my mistake was, I informed her:(:)

[clubagreenie]

You need reprogramming with the "forgiveness vs permission" subscript.

[George130]

Friend did the dish wash error twice!
And no he didn't keep the old ones.

I told him to keep it as a parts washer.
The second time he got caught was because he went out with the engine head in the machine. He came home to the machine in the trailer and the engine head in the bin.

She had already ordered the new dish washer.
