No, actually, it's the cars fault "I'm never going to drive that car again, it's to problamatic"
She was right about the first part of the statement! Write-off.  ::)
 
who bought the car? If it was you, Chris, it only takes another 2-3 days (or maybe weeks if you are lucky...) until it is YOUR fault, because YOU bought that "problematic" car! How could you ever consider such a complex and problematic car?? Didn't you know your wife does not like those "problematic" cars??

Wait for it, it'll come...  :-*

If a shirt does not fit, the designer designed it for those "skinny models" or the sales lady in the shop "made" her buy it.
If she brakes a part off of anything, it is a design- or material fault
if she drops something, someone has asked her to carry to much
if she crashes a car WITH someone else involved, it is the other ones fault, as they should have paid attention.
if she crashes a car without anyone else involved, it is your fault as you decided for the car or you did not install the better light at the garage although she told you since years or...
if a relation-ship brakes, it is your fault because you don't understand her
if...

we could continue like that forever, right? And if you do show her its her fault, you are an a**hole as you don't understand her and do not support her.

So - be aware of 2 simple rules:

?1: It's never her fault
?2: If it obviously is, ?1 automatically applies!

:D
(and before the minority in this forum called ladies think I am a bloody macho - No, it is simply my experience out of 24 years relation ship with the same lady and confirmed by observing the same mentality at all my friends wives... and I don't think this is good or bad, it is just the way it is and women's way to work through a drawback. Oh - and calling me a macho because I highlight a fact means ?2 applies...  :D)

and now ladies, cool down, it is all meant with good humor  ;) Men aren't perfect, we are just man enough to accept that...  :D

:D :D absolutely no need for any of the above. As said, I am in the same relation since 24 years and married since 21 years in a few days and still happy with my wife. She accepts my specialities/differences and I accept hers. It is simply good to know that some genetically programmed behaviors are not changeable. If you know you can't fix it, you simply stop trying, which makes it way more relaxed to live together.

:D

cheers

there is at least one great webpage in german about it, www.ifrau.de. Most of the stories told there are things I experienced in my relationship over the past 24 years or saw it in friends relationships. Always a good page to visit when you think your partner drives you mad. Reminds me to cool down and simply accept the fact you can't change it, you need to accept or - if you can - love it.
 
"if she crashes a car WITH someone else involved, it is the other ones fault, as they should have paid attention."

Reminds me of Arab logic! Co-worker got done for having an accident downtown Jiddah in '85 sitting at a traffic light when a local ploughed into his car from the side. Co-worker was at fault because if he hadn't been there, the accident wouldn't have happened.........
 
My cousin used to work in Nigeria and if ever anyone had a crash the white man always ran away as it was automatically deemed his fault.
 
Back to basics on the wiring loom, now I have decided a Witt ignition is going in. Had the chance to look at Simon's install at the weekend and measure bits and pieces so I can carry on while I wait for it to arrive from Keith.

In PNG, if you had a crash and a local was injured, you headed straight home, collected the family and got the first available plane out of there. Pay back. >:(
 
Off with the old (well the original parts) and on with the new. Red reckoned that the round tank badges wouldn't fit on Boba's carbon tank but a couple of stainless self tappers and some silicone soon sorted that.

You're a sneaky fella, a little too much silicone around one of the heads you cut off, and my OCD says you should have indexed the screw heads before the silcone set. But that's just me!

Looks the goods though, well done.
 
Didn't take you as a counter of rivets Chris, terrific job there Davo (congrats)
