Things just went from bad to worse Frowner

I went to a British car show today (Pantera stayed at home, I traveled with a buddy in his DeLorean ... FYI, nothing happened when we hit 88mph - as an aside, I'm not sure how a Lambo got in there, I overheard him calling out to one of the marshals that he was a 'lotus for the day' ... it was like Sophia Lauren crashing a Mr. Bean convention - interestingly, he wasn't parked too far from a Marcos Mantis - if you search on that plus 'ugliest car in the world', you get 44,000 hits - please don't click on the Mantis link after a large meal)

I digress ... so I go to the car show, enjoy seeing some rare vehicles (an Aston Martin Lagonda actually showed up under power!) and lots of not-so-rare minis, Jags, Triumphs and Lotuses (or is it Loti) almost 1,000 cars were there in 50+ categories ... but when I get home, I discover my wife has gone to Canadian Tire and she liked it, she bought 6 litres of fuel stabilizer a new ceiling fan for me to install and a few other odds and sods.

Is nothing sacred!?!? What's next, will she start going to Princess Auto (kind of a Harbour Freight Tools for Canadians), or Napa/Karbelt/PartSource... Can I expect to come home one day and find she's changed the belts and plugs on the Pantera? Do I need to keep my tools locked away at night?
