Hey now. I married one, and have stayed that way for almost a dozen years.

On a totally unrelated subject, I also have "a thing" for British sports cars and motorcycles. I must find tempermental natures intriguing.

"I must find tempermental natures intriguing."

Then you'd find me endlessly fascinating....;D

I had a Triumph Bonneville [completely original] back in 1994.
An amazing little bike.
Never had any Brit sports cars though, just German.
The first, a Porsche 924 [over-rated, IMO] and a VW Scirocco.
How I loved that Scirocco.
Both were 'temeramental' cars but the Porsche took it to near sociopathic extremes.

My congratulations on being fortunate enough to snag a worthy wife....:)

Of course, it was a pleasureable sensation, that frisson, eh?

A broadsword and leather girdings, a cleansing battle will be glorious!

Request granted.

Though, one must always be alert where a she-devil is concerned.

FRegards!

FYI, I have been "handling" one for almost a dozen years now. The trouble is that half of our kids act just like her.

She didn't have 200,000 "soldiers". She had 200,000 warriors.

The Romans had the soldiers and in a formal pitched battle, the odds favor soldiers.

So, the Romans didn't slaughter "civilians" in their land-grab in Britain? I'd hardly call her force of troops thugs.

Patriots was more like it. The Romans were the thugs here.

And regardless of the outcome of that battle, the odds were stacked against the Britons. Eventually the Romans would have triumphed due to better training, logistics, strategy and numbers.

But she gave it a good try.
