No no no. She will then say 'as your computer is now knackered and we can't afford to buy a new one you can now do the fence in the garden, concrete the drive, build the loft conversion etc etc that you've been saying you were going to do now. no excuses. It will do you good to stay away from those pesky planes for a bit. We can spend more time together. Come and sit here with me and watch Desperate Housewives and I've got an episode of Emmerdale to watch too so you can sit next to me and watch it' :(Better to stay with what you have than risk losing it all :(

HeHeHe! Never thought of that.... maybe your wife is a lot smarter than mine..... Dorothy would simply say "Honey - I know what a firecracker sounds like - you didn't have to do that! If you want a new computer - just go and get it"... and then I would feel so b#@@%^ guilty... and then a day or two later I would find the new dining room suite. :(
