    Tell him a blank cheque to Carbatec et al should be just right

    Default Valentine's Day

    Gee, I have to agree with Gumby on this one. MBGitW and I are just home from a wonderful Dining experience at 112 resturaunt at Wollongong's Rydges Hotel (I know a shameless plug for them, but the food was great!). The most that we'll do for Valentine Day is buy a card for each other, as it's more fun to purchase suprise presents for each other throughout the year. Yes Wendy, you could play hardball with the ute, but don't you get farther with honey than the whip?

    Aw Shucks! Pat!

    Yeah, you're right, but it's so much fun teasing him just a little just like he always teases me

    Must remember/confess that he's bought me all of my really good and expensive tools to date.

    OK, he can still get the ute. But I'll get my happy husband back when he starts his new job in a couple of weeks. That's the best present of all.

    Neil - yep you have a big advantage, though must agree $$ can be a pain sometimes, or the lack thereof

    Clinton - It takes one to know one! He'll be working for a Petroleum Company, workshop manager again, but knowing him, the job will be much more than just spanners and greaseguns. He's actually happy and laughing again - even my Dad mentioned that, pretty momentous thing actually.

    Cliff - a big red ribbon?

    AlexS - RR opens mouth.... thinks twice and closes mouth

    The whole catalogue - now there's a good idea I think I might go for a vice for the WIP workbench.
