From the delightful little book "Don'ts For Husbands" which my Dad gave me for Christmas. Cassy got "Don'ts for Wives"
P.48
"Don't think that you have of necessity done with walking or cycling tours now you are married, as you can't leave your wife and go away with you old chum. Why not take her? ... if she cycles, you will think less of the miles you cover than the charming villages you investigate, you will not need a better chum than she can be."
P.49
"Don't say it is no fun to go out with your wife because she can't "scorch". It will do you no harm to ride more slowly that usual, and your company will give her a great deal of pleasure. Her "going slow" is one of the secrets of her chances of longer life. Take her with you, and you will avoid that overtaxing of the arteries which leads to premature old age."
Sound advice my friends.
