Spending mentality...!!!

[starboard]

Is it just me or is it a common ailment.......should the boat need anything whatever it cost's I just buy it without a second thought. However when it comes to the house or garden I think about it for weeks before making the final decision......am I alone with this, do you think there is a cure???

Sell the house, and go live on the boat...

You almost got it right NAS. Sell the house and the boat, go sit under a tree after he's sent me the money.

No Cure.
Try restoring a car. £3000 motor anyone?

What do you mean 'it takes you 4 weeks' you have been doing some of the jobs for years and still not finished
I had better not tell your wife that you spend money on the boat without thinking

Er, yes, but you can't hear the wonderful noise of the engine with doors on.

(the £3000 refered to the engine, the whole thing cost too much and as is usual, I made a loss. I sold it to buy my boat. This time I bought as cheap as I could and am spending as little as possible)
