lol Ben. I need to have you over for a beer. I have the misfortune of being a qualified chef back in my military days, and it was my job for about 2 years after I got out. Given my missus admits that the only cooking she does is in the machine that goes 'ding' when it's finished, I am the kitchen bitch in our house. It tends to be safer for all involved!
That said, she a good chick. We have a budget for the car, she's just as involved as I am being co-driver. All I have to do is convince her its the difference between running in the top ten compared to the top 20. She's way more competitive than I am, which works at times like this.
She's now reading this over my shoulder............ Tim, Jamo and Brian are now on the shit list..........lol!
It's all good, we'll work something out, we always do.
