When I met my girl... *now wife* she was on holidays here in orange. She lived in Mildura Victoria. Within 3 days of knowing her, I drove her back to mildura, stayed there for a week and moved her back up here to orange. Been together for nearly 6 years now

Going to the bloody snack place at the movies at the start of a movie last night because the missus wanted some snacks.

AFTER she had said 'No babe, I don't want anything' when we were getting tickets.

It's been FAR too long since I've had a GF, consequently I have forgotten the crap I used to get myself into for them

Trudging 6km through driving snow, stopping to buy a Mars bar a long the way 'cause she was hungry..... If I'd known then what I know now I would've stuck to plan 'A'. Sitting inside the heated house in front of the box and made HER walk over!!

Drove a Kombi from Melbourne to Townsville in 48 hours (thanks to Mr Weber and Mr Bosch and a lumpy cam) to see if we could work it out. Even had a sleep in that time.
Didn't, and that was excellent as it turned out. But maybe I did it for me .....

Fast forward 25 yrs, decided to leave a good woman because I'd become a 'bad man'. She's much happier now .....
But will someone please write a husband's guide to menopause ?
About the only self-help book worth buying.
