I used to mind when he handed me a pair of trousers saying "The pockets have worn through again". when we were first married I would buy new pocket linings and put them in (not as easy to get them in neatly as they made it sound on the packet) Later on I would just machine across the pocket just above the hole, which made the shallower so that stuff fell out.
More recently I would tell him that it it was time he bought a new pair - or left some of the junk at home, particularly the keys to every door in the house, the car, the caravan, the caravan wheel lock, the trailer wheel lock, Old Uncle Tom Cobbley's horsebox and all.
