do what i did, go food shopping with the wife and kids (always a winner with the wife).
make sure you go past the magazine section and insist that she grabs one of those trashy mags they like. make sure you appear to be having a great time food shopping and that the time spent with the family is your highlight of the day!
when you get to the check out and she sees what you have thrown in (ie the torch) say that it is to help see when you are doing those little jobs around the house, like when the power goes out and you need to be safety conscious and use two hands to change a fuse.
she will see thu it from a mile away, but i bet you will end up the torch.
yes we will look extra geeky and darleky, but who cares.
i might even surprise the wife one night and race into the bedroom with nothing but my head torch on.
