I think you need to go out and buy a new watch to console yourself. Wife can't object since it's her fault!

She said to me at lunch time,"what do you think we should do" I said well I can't get a new certificate but I can probably replace the wallet etc, she said no "shall we go to town to get some new hair straightners"

I went to the coffee shop on my own

If the watch got hit, I wonder if your homeowners policy would cover it.

Sorry about that.

Well, better going to get some coffee than providing your honest opinion about trusting her with electrical devices, I suppose.
