Dear Mrs Expat,

I've never met your husband, in fact I don't even know his real name. However, please take it from me that Mr Expat didn't pay any money (or sexual favours, swap pictures of you in your underwear or make any other form of payment) for the additional BMX bike you now find in your garage. I'm sure the extra bike bits and pieces that your husband acquires each week won't add too much to the shipping costs in your move to the USA.

Regards,
62vette (not my real name)
