I don’t get women. What’s wrong with having an alloy on the dining room table and giving it a good clean and polish.ive got the tv on a beer and the dog is quite happy nicking the cloths and bogging off Down the garden so I have to chase here . I don’t get the problem .

They can be quite strange at times, dishwashers can do a half decent job as a parts washer and keeping your motorbike in the dining room is all perfectly reasonable to me

My wife frequently gives me house stuff to put in the garage, so surely okay to bring car stuff into the kitchen. Only fair.

Geoff, this is multi tasking so she probably feels you're a threat.

Yeah I don't get it either.
If I leave any bike (mountain bike not motor bike) parts in the conservatory she goes nuts. Seems fine for her to leave stuff in my bike shed though. :(

Built my cotic mountain bike in the dining room aswell her indoors wasn’t happy about that either. Think the final straw was buying her a nice set of shiny exhaust pipes for my bike for her birthday. If looks could kill .

We had a Roady work for us who repaired his Ducati in his lounge. Probably the reason why his wife left him. She just didn't understand him :rolleyes:
