But may I compliment you on getting "beholden" and "consumer durables" into one sentence. Love beholden , going to use it more.

Good idea mabble. He has two in the garage. Will send him out.

Cheers up MmeLindt.

It could be ancient diesel trains being started for the first time in years like my dh watches. The farting spluttering noise they make is irritating to say the least.

And, he's started showing them to ds1

As an IT geek, I cannot stand it when DP uses my computers. She has her own.
