Awesome work, well done to you and your wife. I just told my girlfriend about your rebuild and your wife doing it with you.
Me - tell her about your rebuild Her - Pulls a funny face Me - Its ok, we don't need to rebuild ours. her - I doesn't matter to me, I'm not your wife! Followed by the 'when will you ask me to marry you' conversation!!! Now, IF I ever do marry her, it's because the 110 needs a full rebuild!!! haha Strong people are harder to kill and generally more useful! |
