Dear Doctor

My wife thinks I'm a sad person who spends far too much time at his
computer - I tell her that I have a secret circle of friends who discuss
complicated detailed technical matters *way* beyond her level of
comprehension and any strange images she may find on my machine, especially
those which *seem* to be of young ladies in artistic poses, are really
drawings of a new engine which we have collectively designed and cunningly
disguised to protect the patent.

Am I rambling? Should I change my friends? Should I change my
wife? Would getting out more often help?

Is there a cure?

Yes, the same time next week will be fine.......

I'm far too young to join this discussion but I have been thinking
about that £1500 you have to spend. Just happens I have some old
(very) British Empire quality iron, XL something or other. Yes it has
a slight crack in the headstock casting but you can still see where
the feed nut threads used to be and the fourteen coats of Hammerite
are very decorative. It has a few gears that I think were hand cut or
at least the repairs were and I think I might just be able to get it
under your limit.

You won't need a doctor when the better half sees what you have spent
the money on - instant cure.
