Ladies' guidelines for dealing with male partners' hobby.

The last time I got my wife to help me in the garage she dropped a CV joint on my foot! She's very good though, she's bought me so many tools that Machine Mart address the catalogues to her :)

I cannot complain - my wife is as into cars as me. The other day I suggested we look into redoing the bathroom :roll: but she looked fairly unimpressed and just said - no - you cannot take a new bathroom for a damn good blast up the bypass can you!! :D
