Diana, you made me smile my Grandad (Mum's dad) would alwayd say 'it's womens work' lol. I work full time and have all the house work to do too so often feel like a donkey lol. How do we women do it? We just do. How many men go out and work all day and then come home to cook tea and do 2 hours of ironing? Jack (who also gets up forst to make everone a cuppa and packed lunch) x

Deanna I have to agree with you there. My hubby leaves for work at 6:45, he always makes me a coffee and kisses me goodbye and I don't see him again until 6:10 in the evening cos he works an 11 hour day which is more than I work here (7.5 hours) and the housework put together. And he still looks soooo pretty! Julie xxx

Sorry, but as hard as life may be for women, I am very glad to be one. I think on the whole, men have a tougher life. I've sat on my bed at 4.30 in the morning waving my husband off to work and not seen him again until 10.30 that same night. Me? I cuddled back up in my lovely warm bed and slept until the baby woke me up at about 7.00. Went down stairs... in dressing gown. Woke the children up for school. EVERYTHING I did, I did in comfort. Hard life?? It has nothing to do with gender. Deanna X creeping off quietly.................... (forgot one of my F's

Harry, Your missing the important point that any woman can do about 10 jobs at once - ask a man to do one job and it is only ever half done! Thats why you fellas get nagged and put down so much. Louise

Harry, It looks like your in trouble so i will take some of the heat off you. I thought you where old enough and experienced enough to no that the ladies will never ever stop complaining as it is in their genetic make up, and when there is a deficiency then their mothers put them straight. Men only exist for the Purpose of being moaned at by the ladies, that’s what my mum always told me. Roy :-))
