    They always pretend they understand when you try to explain things to them because they don't want you to think they don't understand, no disrespect to Rayna because she seems to be really switched on, certainly the exception

    Rather harsh Michael, I would like to say most of our partner's are very switched on,
    It's like anything if it's not interesting to them or others, then just smile and say yes dear,
    We men just need to have those magic words said to us, Yes dear go ahead if it makes you happy,
    Funny we think we are in charge but we still ask for permission

    No flies on Rayna, she is as sharp as razor. Watch out Keith

    They often misinterpret what is said for example, when I say to my wife 'please be careful when you cross the road' she has a right go at me saying 'there you go you want me to get killed' and I never hear the end of it for the next couple of hours

    I think that's more of a relationship statement than a general one Michael

    After thinking about this you may have some sort of point,
    When I say NO , Emma must misinterpret as , that's means YES at a later date

    I thought you'd have had it finished by now mate.

    SHADE... so I'll go with a nipa type roof (like an awning)... over the top of the 'actual' one... with two or 3 foot gap between, to get some air through.

    Can't beat cheap, readily available local materials, and the people with the skills to work with them.

    Fair enough Graham...But please make sure the pitch (for your nipa roof) is at least 45 degrees other wise you will receive an old fashioned water bed...
    Also,buy some new fishing net to stretch over the whole thing...Especially there in Luzon.
    Just sayin mate!~
