My OH reminds me of Onslo our of Keeping up appearances.

Fred I'm sure my late MiL did not programme her son to walk over a basket and then say it he didn't see it, If he had moved it at least he would of acknowledged it was there. I will admit NOTHING

Dawn, OH 's reply would have been that if he had pegged it out, he would have got into trouble for not pegging it properly, so what's the point if I am going to re-do it anyway. Didn't have an answe for that as he was right!

Hello Fred.. ...Pringles.....just put a match to one and watch it burn and the fat bubbling out.....could be used as firelighters....but we eat them

No FF u are running again!!!!!!

Hi Dawnie I have one just like your's as well. Does'nt see what is under his nose and also has selective hearing to boot. I blame his Mother!!!!! Ann :-)

Its In their Genes!! Ive got one too!lol

Fred typica man can't keep away as wants the last word lol

This weekend my wife bought some more of her favourite treats..................I know better than to tell her how fattening they are......;.but as we were having a party my son demonstrated how much fat was in them by putting a match to one and it burned away like a fire lighter...........my wifes response ? but I like them because they taste nice ....????

Typical male running at the 1st sign of losing come back FF we know you are still there

Foxy I do put hubbies slippers out........... in the bin he fetches them back!!!!. As for cooking dinner, he eats at work, but we agreed inside cooking is mine outside is his! !!!! so I moved all the cooking gear outside into the awning! His job! But I am good to him I always make sure he's awake in time to go to work. and I stay up to greet him when he gets in at 2am.

Colin typical man and then when you lose something we must of moved it. Didder depends what the helping hand is going to do lol and it would take you hours to get to my part of the country

Dawn, tools are never left in the way, they are always where we put them so that they are handy next time we need them..............my wife mentioned today that the grassbox has not moved from where I left it the last time I mowed the grass............I don't understand her.....it is not alive....how can it move

Women ! We get rid of the possers, get them twin tubs and now fully automatic washers and driers and they do is moan. Bob

Didder if you call having no voice and feeling whacked out well then yes I am lol the washing and ironing is about the only thing hubby doesn't do but will at a push. Just couldn't believce he stepped over the basket and then said he didn't see it lol

The Good Wife's Guide Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready, on time for his return. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospect of a good meal (especially his favourite dish) is part of the warm welcome needed. Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you'll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it. Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Gather up schoolbooks, toys, paper etc and then run a duster over the tables. Over the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering for his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction. Prepare the children. Take a few minutes to wash the children's hands and faces (if they are small), comb their hair and, if necessary, change their clothes. They are little treasures and he would like to see them playing the part. Minimise all noise. At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be quiet. Be happy to see him. Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him. Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first - remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours. Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or goes out to dinner, or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be at home and relax. Your goal: Try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order and tranquillity where your husband can renew himself in body and spirit. Don't greet him with complaints and problems. Don't complain if he's late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day. Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or have him lie down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him. Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice. Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgement or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him. A good wife always knows her place….!
