    And what about ...

    Telling your partner to call his Dad to pop around and fix it! Scott, my partner is BRILLIANT with computers - although I can take apart a computer and put it back together again, as well as other things, I leave it all to him! He's reasonable with other things around the joint - but his Dad, an eletrical engineer, has an extra knack for fixing those BLEEPING leaking taps!

    This is what happened when I managed to bust the laundry tap about three weeks ago all we managed to do was turn the water off at the mains, and beg Scott's Dad to come round while we were at work! LOL

    Maybe that's why I am still not married, I don't need a plumber (yes, unfortunately, most of the women in my country think they need a husband for reasons like this )

    There is no way I'm calling the plumber-butt cleavage is not my idea of a pretty sight!!
    my dad taught me how to do all of my own repairs-hand me a wrench and I'm as happy as a piggy in mud.
    Artists and dogs are not meant to be understood;merely adored!!!

    First I'd call my dad, and if that didn't work then I'd call the plumber.

    While he was here, I'd work out a deal to do his wifes/gf's hair in trade, watch what he did so I could do it myself next time, probably hook him up with a pit bull that needed a home and Elvis would supervise the whole job.

    You're just kidding, but... Three years ago I had an American bf. On the way to some resort here in Moldova we needed to change a wheel (we had a spare one in the trunk). HE PANICKED!!! WHERE COULD HE FIND A SERVICE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE?!?!?!
    Me and my sister, we just laughed and I changed the wheel.

    DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE TOLD ME AFTER THAT? That I am not feminine enough for him! Like he was masculine enough for me
