Yep, that's what my wife called herself, whilst perusing the various threads, she was talking to me, but I was seemingly totally oblivious to what she was saying!
When I turned around to ask what she was saying, she said 'I know my place now, I've become a Pistonheads widow!!!
OMG, I feel so bad, as a husband, I feel I must try harder!!!

introduce her to Ph, there are some great threads about, not all car related (if she's not into that)

I used to be a ph widow, Mark was on it all the time and I got really pd off with him.

But now I'm probably on it more than him

Not always a good thing though, the house doesn't get tidied anymore, the kids go hungry, and I've got RSI...

LOL, Just showed her this thread and she was a bit upset, saying she was only joking, bless her! She comes on here very occasionally, and there were loads of really helpful people who gave me very cool advice (for Chantelle), regarding CVs.
She is a petrol head though, loves driving the Tam (well, the only times she seems to drive it is to and from services!!! lol)

The other half ('breadknife' is her PH ID) is defiitely aware of her PH widow status, but I think humours me when I feel the need to ramble on about something car-related, bless her.

If mine were still hereabouts, I think she would have killed me by now....

No...I know she'd have killed me.....

Mr Big is a Pistonheads Widower. He does pinch the laptop occasionally - but we have a rule in our house - you can have either the laptop or the remote control - and he is never keen to give up his self elected position as Remote Controller.

I've heard this technique can "delay" things.

Nope, in fact Mr Rude and I met through PH. We've had some cracking 'disagreements' on here as well

I was a PH widow, which is why I started posting.

It's the only way to have a conversation with him without arguing!

MrRotty is a PH widower. The bit he really hates is when I'm on the laptop and start sniggering - he knows I'm on here...
