I would like to say that Margaret knew what she was in for when she met me, On our first Tandem ride, it;s about 50 years ago , a couple of years before we were married, we had the misfortune of a puncture in the rear wheel. Me being an absolute gentleman said in my coarse Yorkshire accent , " Right Luv, the puncture is in't back, your end, so y'owl afta fettle it "....( I did though get out all the tackle needed for the job to help out )...She said in her more refined voice " Oh dear. this is rather beastly , should we not hail a cab ? "...But, she did a great job, my hands remained clean and off we went again towards a long and happy relationship...
