She did not actually say anything, but I would like to know how, when I am upstairs working on my PC and she drops a wine glass in the kitchen - it is my fault?
Of course it is. You drank from it and/or left it there and/or saw it there and didn't move it to a place of safety. Didn't you?matchmaker said:

New front wing delivered today, for my Bora. She put it in the conservatory, then said "we shouldn't leave that out there, it could melt in the sun"
Really?
Then, I was talking to the lad who's staying with us at the moment about a video of an octopus living in a bottle on the sea bed (can't remember why...) and I notice she is looking at me strangely. Turns out she was only half listening, and thought it was something I'd seen at the Suffolk Agricultural show I'd been to today...
Maintain eye contact, back slowly away toward the door...

'She didn't actually say anything...'I can only aspire to instilling this level of guilt, paranoia and confusion in my current victim.

Classic from older son. He's changing a spring on his Astra.
(on phone)son: I need you to go to Halfords and get a breaker bar. I can't shift this fking bolt.
Me (wearily): OK, with you in 20 minutes.
20 minutes later, at lockup with big fk off breaker bar.
Son: That's it on. Will you push down on the breaker bar?
Me: You mean pull up on the breaker bar...
Son: fk!
Doesnt that depend on what way you have the bar i.e if the bar is to the left of the bolt you would push down, if the bar is to the right of the bolt you would pull up(on phone)son: I need you to go to Halfords and get a breaker bar. I can't shift this fking bolt.

True, but whichever way, he should have known that it's anti-clockwise to undo! My wife knows this, and she has bugger all qualifications.
