Clarke fights a turf war

IMAGINE if you and your other half had a bit of money to spend on home improvements.

- 

Imagine if one of you desperately wanted to spend most of it on upgrading your kitchen, while the other insisted that the garden should take priority.

Imagine if you'd been bickering over this for ages, each of you having flatly refused to back down. Imagine if some of that bickering had developed into full-blown rows. Imagine if you'd stopped speaking to one another. Imagine if one of you had moved to the spare bedroom. Or the shed. Or that Travelodge opposite Tesco. That would be awful, wouldn’t it? So please don’t ever let that happen. Nip it in the bud. Life’s too short. The moment you and your partner feel a kitchen-vs-garden dispute coming on, you know who to call, I take it?
