Mrs Bling takes the p*ss out of my obsession with old Triumphs. Calls me an anorak. Having said that, she likes driving the Spitfire, and is even warming to the TR7!!!2005 Disco 3 TDV6 7 seater. Leather, DVD, fully colour-coded.

On our way back from Boughrood on Friday evening Mrs Do$h asked "you're not going to be buying one of the Disco3 shirts, are you?"
Not worried about the presence of 4 spare alloys in the rear garden, the purchase of AT2s, the impending arrival of a high level intake or my frequent pondering on the matter of winches, but the shirt would be seen as a bridge too far
Fair play though, Mrs D is rather into her machinery and 4x4s. We call it MechPorn and it's a forbidden love we can share. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
Mrs D's first husband was a member of the MR2 owners club and used to proudly wear his t-shirt at every opportunity. Mind you, he used to shave his knackers too, which gives you an idea of the man. I think that may have coloured her views on car-related clothing.....I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I think the appearance in our house of any kind of Land Rover or Disco 3 branded apparel would result in instant divorce Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
No, because Mrs JMC is wearing the shirt. That means she has to..... well, you get the idea. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
