I'm Really Worried About My Wife.

[Jeepers Creepers]

I'm thinking she could've been a man thats had a sex change op at some stage.

Don't get me wrong, she's pretty, slim figure, very feminine and all that and quite frankly, i think she scrubs up ok for an old 51 year old......but.

The thing that has me beat and really unsure, is the other day out the front of the IGA, she ripped off the best reverse park i've ever seen. Both wheels a neat four inches from the concrete kerb, the Jeep perfectly placed within the lines and she did it at a fair ol pace too, as she wanted to get in before an approaching car got too close.

There's no way that could be done by a female......... I think i'm married to a bloke....

Maybe the IGA had some good "specials".......

So , your wife bought the Jeep:-)

Hi mate,
I have heard about these changes the woman get as they get older. My Mrs is in the mid 40's. I have been warned about changes as they get older. Improvement to driving/parking, well that has already happened. Drinking more alcohol more often, yep.
Some things I have heard about but have not happened yet. They start liking beer and red wine. Start watching the footy. Want to take over the cooking on the BBQ.

The other concern is changes in us blokes.
I am really worried as apparently, within the next few years I will start taking a liking to ABC television shows. That shortly escalates to only watching the ABC and then tuning in to ABC radio. Then comes the having dinner at 6pm, going to bed at 9pm.
I always avoid the ABC radio and television station as much as possible. Hopefully delay the inevitable.

Geeze!! Jeepers, you are a terror for punishment are'nt you. I heard that the bruising was just going down and your body was almost back to normal after the last round of compliments you paid to your lovely wife.

Muzza01, looks like I am buggered then, I watch ABC tv, my raido is on ABC, and often in bed by 9.

Muzza, it is that you finally realize that commercial TV, these days, has nothing but ignorant "reality" shows and ads.
As we get older we become a lot less tolerant of that sort of crap, we become known as "grumpy old men/women".
When this happens and you move to ad free TV you will realise that the ABC is not bad at all.

Cheers

9 p.m. is late night for me. And I watch the ABC, I'm only 38. Oh crap, I'm old & I didn't even see the signs.

George Burns famously said:
"You can't help getting older. But there's no excuse for getting old."
My aim is stay young enough to keep embarrassing my kids.

Yes mate...... and the number plate is WIFE'S just so everyone knows who gets the car in a bust up.

Get her to explain the Offside Rule in Soccer [football], that will confirm or allay your suspicions!!!

Might not be far away if she reads some of your posts on here.

Soccer is a girls sport anyhow, so what really prove too much, maybe if she can explain the difference between a ruck and a maul?

[TheWall]

Or each one of the 10 scrum penalties a game...

[Jeepers Creepers]

i can't explain 'em either.  but then, i know bugger all about baseball.

I once made my X from long ago drive my old HJ47 ute with 33"s and no power steering around Sydney traffic. She failed with the simple bits like going forward.
That is why she is an X.
Now, my lovely better half, the first driving test I gave her was to back out of a really difficult sloping spot in my old XF manual ute with a big roo bar up front, did it perfectly and even noticed the look on my face and suggested I pull my head in a little.
Now sadly, that skill has diminished a bit due to young kids, it seems women lose the capacity for thinking rational for a while. I can see it coming back now which is good.

Does only watching ABC 1 2 or 3 count? My wife listens to radio national, I listen to JJJ, yep, and I'm 46, 30 plus years of the J's for me
I hate all adds.

[Symon]

My wife wants our next car to be a 76 lancruiser as she wants more power than the HDJ79 can provide.

My TV is permanently locked onto ABC24, can't stand the other rubbish they have on TV.

My wife can both reverse and parallel park and there's nothing masculine about her, so stop worrying.

Both car radios are permanently tuned to the ABC - and don't forget that in Brisbane Spenser Howson regularly tops the breakfast show ratings.  The only drawback with ABC radio is that when they run a competition the prize is a Wiggles CD from the ABC shop!

[lilstookie]

Funny this thread should pop up, in a caravan park the other day I had a bloke run down the park shouting "there is a woman reversing a trailer" I couldn't understand why my wife was in the car I'm sure I sent her to the shops

[siringo]

Soccer is a girls sport anyhow,

Yep, that's why it's the most popular sport in the world.

[berlitza]

If there was a sale on I've seen em jump 12ft high fences and scale 9 story buildings so to park a effectively no big feat , actually being able to park a car aint to bad for a sheila, the perfect test would be to get her to reverse a 6x4 in post and pre sale conditions 

[Desert lover]

I'm laughing here  but ... you sexist B****ds!  Many of the female species can drive, park a car and reverse a trailer....some even better than the male variety!  My dad had some wise words of wisdom for his girls...."if you are going to have these toys (boats/ cars/trailers/etc etc) then you need to know how to sail them, drive, park and reverse them AND maintain them".... So he then set about teaching us how.  Now, I can drive (a number of years spent as a police pursuit instructor), reverse our 7 x 5, our two ton 25 ft trailer sailer on its trailer, and even our camper trailer straight into the garage.....and even change wheel bearings.  So my dear men get off your soap boxes and now and again please applaud (nicely) when your wife manages to land a great park!   

[Jeepers Creepers]

So i'm guessing you don't like the saying "women drivers.... no survivors" either then.
