Crikey! While the good lady surely would have a fit at the thought of any such indecent proposals, would she not change her mind if 1.) you managed to secure a new vehicle for the household, horses have a thousand uses, and 2.) that vehicle can also babysit in a pinch?
All for the cost of a couple of happy sacks slaps...?
I'm kidding of course, no family should be broken up by a womble.
You might have something there though. Perhaps if I could convince another horsey type to joi in then we could have two horses to pull the trap along or deal with Daddys night demon!!
