I'm suprised to hear a woman own up to it so readily. They'll be wanting to do our washing and ironing soon too.

While we're on the subject.

Why do women wear white wedding dresses ? Because all the other kitchen appliances are white too.

Well done Sassy   :cool:

My engine bay is shameful, I haven't cleaned it for ages as I know I've got a 16v engine sat in the garage waiting to go in  :evil:
