The Royal Engineering Museum might also be interesting:

I don't get it.
Your wife of 40 plus years wants to do something with you; with you ! no-one else but you.
You backed out of a trip to South America & Antarctica and now she can't travel there because of her health.
Will you do the same thing again ? What will you tell yourself when she can no longer travel there either or anywhere else for that matter ?
Oh, its OK I didn't want to go anyway. That will be a fine comfort for her won't it ?
So now tell us why you even have a 4WD ?
Since in your words "I don't even want to leave the house and the 4WD is in the backyard not the driveway" please tell us then whats the point ?
If my wife of 35 years suggested a trip to anywhere I would have her bags and mine packed before she stopped asking.
To me its simple! your wife asked you to go, so you go.
Either that or you really are a miserable old git. :thumbsdown:
It actually sounds like you need to visit your doctor and get checked up for depression. Don't let yourself succumb to self pity.
Wifey & I have been together for 35 years as well & we quite often go our separate ways. There's places I like to go where she doesn't & vice versa but we do go a lot of places together. We do enjoy fishing & camping which is why we have the Disco & off road camper trailer.Quote:

I must be a miserable old git too as I have trouble getting out of my place quite often. I'm more than happy to wander around the property doing this & that. Going into a major centre for shopping purposes is alien to me & I can't wait to get out.
Now I wonder why I started this thread.
It sorta surprised me too Ron, only you can answer the question. As I'm sure you are aware mate, a relationship only lasts as long as yours and Elizabeth's with a good dose of consideration combined with give and take. :)Quote:

Catch up when you (and we) get back...
