was once the captain of a professional Jelly Wrestling team;
works part time and does most of the housework "so she feels like she's contributing equally";
doesn't spend much and doesn't mind where i spend mine (so long as it's occasionally on her);
does minimum 2 hours exercise a day, as well as being a qualified personal trainer and getting me off my lazy butt (no mean feat!);
and has on more than one occasion gleefully stripped to her knickers to help dig Jezebel out of the mud... I think it's the wrestling training coming out again... (and she wonders why I keep getting stuck!)

I can see what's coming.

I just wonder who will be first...

Yes I "caved in" and did the same ;-)

Personal allowance of three vehicles? I've got seven. 1/60 scale ;-)

I agree on that one much better spending money on my landie's.....and why does it have to be boy activities

I knew that Isuzus vibrated but I never realised just how much!!
I suppose it saves on batteries too.

everything about the tractor is true
she doesn't spend money, actually hates shopping
does everything around the house
cooks well
cleans well
Cant really complain about her at all, except her dislike of landy's
thank you to all
especially those who mentioned jewellery

Has she gone yet?

What sort of an answer is that!!!

The only use jewellrey has is helping to pay off a Jewller's wife's Mercedes.

Biggest waste of space on the planet - BLING!!

She will probably still complain anyway
