I have watched this thread, interestingly started by = a Brit but mainly
followed by Americans (which is probably why nobody = referred to one's
supposedly better half as 'the trouble and strife') = with much curiosity.
Given the idyllic picture ("The little IT shop = in the prairie") one
wonders how the US manage to have so high a divorce = rate. Must be SAs,
developers and end-users who push the average = up.

Very refreshing.
