Title: have you thanked your wife / girl lately??? Post by: nicolas on March 22, 2007, 21:52:05 pm well have you?
i have been wrenching on the car a lot lately, just to get things done for the next season. my girl has never ever complained about it once. i try to minimise the hours i work on the car, but when i get started i always get carried away and end up working on it for way longer than i promised. maybe you know the feeling, maybe you don't... but i am very lucky to have such a wonderfull girl, who has so much patience for me and my other girl (daisy, its the name of my fastback) Title: Re: have you thanked your wife / girl lately???

Post by: stealth67vw on March 23, 2007, 16:59:42 pm I tell my girl "Woman this is how it is, and if you don't like it you can hit the road". ::) In reality it's more like "Honey what would you think if I bought this?.........................Oh please don't beat me for asking." Naaah just kidding again. My girl actually refinanced her house to help me buy me another bug. I thank her daily every time I look out into the driveway and see my 67 sitting there.

;D OK, ok, I know that it's note the kind of help you meant. But I cannot understand when someones girl allows him to to play with VW, or just tolerate his hobby. We're into it together.

But I cannot understand when someones girl allows him to to play with VW, or just tolerate his hobby. We're into it together. to me it's just that i get up early and am away from home the whole day to work, come home and work on the car. she sometimes harly sees me in a day. and a lot of people would not like it. so i try to make time for all of us and thank her once in a while to stay with me and put up with all of it. and it would be nice to have a little path on the head when you leave home to be a jolly little boy with the rest off the clubmembers. i never thought i would say it, but we, guys, need this in some way. and as i said i am very blessed with my girl Title: Re: have you thanked your wife / girl lately???
