Hehe, what a laugh.

My secret is simple really. My wife has a passion for handbags, shoes etc that would make that Marcos woman blush. We have an agreement whereby I never pass comment on "yet another bag/shoes/daft fashion accessory" and she keeps schtumm when I trundle back from makinh Hannants or Modelzone much richer.


The secret, get something on yer missus that you can use as a counter-attack whenevr she launches a "not more boys junk" offensive. It has to be something she will not easilly stop and feels slightly guilty about.

In other words, find her equivelant of you moddeling bug

Another method;
give 10 dollars to son and tell him to give another 10 dollars if he can take the models on your modelling den without getting caught by mom. add that if he will get caught ;you will tell you dont know him and nothing about models

warning ; the sons usually think this is a good way to earn money. last time he blackmailed me telling 40 dollars or i will tell mom you got another model.

:-) :-) :-) This is such a funny thread.....my work mates think i'm losing it as i was laughing alot. I can relate to alot of people here.


Women know us boys too well. I have one box that i store my unbuilt kits in... the box got full so i got a bigger one and acted like nothing changed. She noticed straight away. Now she's noticed the box is full. Seems she has a radar for new kits inbound.

But remember the key is to, when asked about a kit she hasn't seen before, say, "yeeeeaah i've had this one for months....i showed you remember?"
