Morning All,

I’m new to the forum and all the gubbins (be gentle) - CBA to talk about bikes at the moment but I’m sure my time will come.

So Me and Mrs are just about to move into our first place. We've got the bed / sofa / big tv / Playstation /cooking / cleaning sh*t - and all the other junk to make it a home, but we have a second bedroom that I’m refusing to make a (bedroom) - I've tired to convince her to let me use it as a bike workshop and its not happening - anyone else got a good idea -

Home cinema maybe?

I await your comments....

    As this is the CrudCatcher (you'll soon learn our ways) first of all, your Mrs - I'd do her, and you should leave her ina ditch with her head pointin backwards for not lettin you have a bike workshop.

    Secondly, Home Cinema FTW!

    How about building a scale model of Rhyl, or given your 2k budget save yourself a grand and just buy Rhyl

    I've already got the crucifix and sex swing in the bedroom so the 'Dungeon' is sorted - side note can it be called a dungeon in a top floor flat?? :?

    The man cave is a fine idea except with a lock on the door how is she to bring me my dinner! I’m certainly not moving to let her in..

    Just make sure you put a sign on the bedroom door. Could be messy if someone opens it.....

    As an alternative - i could wait until she heads out for work and do this:

    im not even much of a trekkie - but this would really pi*s her off.

    in the mean time surfbum if you could price me up a system to open the door to the sound of my clap that would be great.

    Thats got nothing to do with a spare room and frankly is pretty disgusting.

    I'm never having a shmoke with you thats for sure.



    You could make your own ditch. Then you wouldn't have to go out to do the obvious.

    Is that like a big fridge where you keep the Polar Bears?

    Seems a bit cruel. Do you at least make it so the light stays on when you shut the door?

    Hmm well the room should be sound proofed, and the door should show no traces of light so the misses has no idea your there.

    OK so:

    Limes - Check
    Sting - Check
    Bacons - Check
    Rhyl - Check
    Ditch - Check

    No mention of Liver or Steak 99's.....FAIL! Get with it people! You have let me down!!!

    On the other hand, what's wrong with your Mrs why won't she let you make a bike workshop? I would be perfectly happy if my spare room was one of those. Make it 1/3 cinema, 1/3 bike workshop so you can fettle while you watch movies (or porn) on a big screen...and the other 1/3 sex dungeon, this also works well with home cinema! WIN

    That is all.

    Spoken like a true genius, I might be with the wrong girl!!!!

    Maybe I buy the Mrs a bike in the vein attempt to get her in to riding and thus convincing her room to workshop conversion would be a good idea...

    Got to weigh it up though - there’s always the potential she'll wanna come riding with me!

    Good god this is difficult! :?

    Trust me she won't want to ride with you all the time. she will want to find her own group of people to bike with.

    Although I have done it on occasion, I prefer not to bike with men I am seeing often becasue I feel under too much pressure to do the stuff they are and risk hurting myself, and also feel bad if they wait for me. The odd ride now and again is all good, but I would expect to ride things other than a bike hald way round hehe.

    Ah heaven my worst nightmare has happened to my friend his misses now rides bike's with him, she isn't very fast or confident he is tryign to help her, but she hardly lets him ride with out her, insists he stays with her and so on, its awful better she didn't ride!! lol

    Having a partner who rides is a double edged sword indeed.

    She is best off finding her own people to bike with mostly. I prefer it that way! But the odd ride with mid- way benefits is fun :D

    For the record, I am unfit and slow but I am not THAT bad on a bike, not that good either though haha

    I'm fortunate, Mrs G is neither fast nor confident, but she's willing. The plus point is she's more than happy to have a potter round Cannock or somewhere with me, then pack me off with the big boys to pretend we know what were doing. That means extra time on bike for me, ok nothing hardcore but I quite enjoy a gentle pedal through the countryside on occasion
