How many women rely on their husband or partner to look after the likes of their car’s tyres, oil, water top up and the occasional wee repair…
And how many husbands and partners don’t like to say no when she asks for help even if they aren’t very good at mechanical matters or are so busy it has to wait until they aren’t…
I have just read a blog about this very gender subject at FOXY Choice subscriber Swiftest Aldershot Garage’s website.
We know Swiftest knows how to be a female friendly garage for women drivers in Aldershot but I had no idea of the angst garages can face on occasion when hubby’s mechanical handywork doesn’t pass muster come MOT time!
And the point is, why try to do a job that doesn’t come easy to you and takes much longer than getting the professionals to do it? Not only are there safety implications but this can prove very costly if the car fails its MOT and even worse… if arguments about all this end up in the divorce courts.
Stranger things have happened and the point is made tongue in cheek of course… but it can be a contentious area.
