No, the boat is still being furbished - should be ready for the summer

I gave the Sat Nav to him about 2 weeks ago so that he could start using it - still got a couple of small suprises for Sunday though!

I've got the wife an outdoor TV aerial complete with the fixing brackets and mast. We have a TV in the bedroom, and she wants to be able to use the freeview box on it. The current aerial is OK for terrestial, but the digital box just doesn't get a decent enough signal.

BTW. I've NEVER watched TV in the bedroom, so this is just for her benefit. Besides it's what she wanted

A couple of years ago I got her a steamer and a nice big bag of cous cous. I honestly thought that she'd like it, but she found it more offensive than having nothing at all. I don't take any chances nowadays, I always ask what she wants. If she says "nothing really", then that's what she gets. Besides she'd much rather have the money to get someting in the January sales, than have one of my duff ideas at christmas.

I'd still like to try some cous cous one day. Maybe I'll unpack that steamer myself sometime

Last minute order: a flip-phone with camera.......

Remember her saying she fancied one last time I bought her a mobile. Ungrateful.............!!!
