Without an understanding woman I think we'd all be in trouble. My chipper turned out to be a scam so no money has left my account and I still have no chipper. Oh well, I always say I should save more!

Your not kidding about the understanding woman!!

Mine has said that getting mine back on the road after the gearbox failure is a priority. Apparently she cannot stand to see me that depressed again!! :o

So yes i am going to have to marry her!! (i was going to anyway but just another reason to add to the list) ;)
