I think the two real marriage issue between them, which I didn't make clear in my post, was that Y wasn't on speaking terms with W, so she thought having strangers around he would warm up instead of ignoring her
As for the turntable cover, it's just crazy. Luckily I got a replacement from Amazon very quick, it's not like the shops would stock them nowadays
Oh wow, that is sad if they are married. I feel bad for her that she would go to those lengths just to get him to talk.
