Brought her a new iron yesterday.
Came in from work this morning to find Ironing board in the back garden.In a state of broke.
New iron in box
"Don't bloody work does it.Lost me temper and we need a new ironing board"
I take iron out of box and plug it in. On side of iron is a on/off switch.
Ask'd her if she had turn'd this switch on.Let's just say she hadn't ;D ;D ;D ;D

NO MAN should iron at all while he has a woman in the house, good god you'll be telling him to cook next. ;D BTW Mrs GTH keeps a very nice cave. |

I hadn't yet been awarded it when I made that post  My man and I take turns with the cooking. And he does a LOT more ironing than me. He is a proper man, not afraid of a little hard work.  |

Mrs GTH is a full time domestic engineer and I'm a full time "hunter gatherer" and what with me being a dyed-in-the-wool union man I don't believe in crossing demarcation lines. |

I'm the domestic engineer and himself is the supposed hunter gatherer. Something's gone wrong though, surely he's supposed to be the DIY expert. not me?

I think in our partnership we are both as much one as t'other, although I suspect that will change temporarily (at least) when we start making small people.

But then you have the help of older people(grandparents). Of which being in that club.Is great fun.But you can hand them back after getting them so tired(From chasing them round the garden etc)That they don't sleep and I can wonder to the pub with a happy heart. ;D ;D ;D

Spare a thought for us singletons, who have nobody to share domestic duties!
Then again, there's nobody to complain if things don't get done.

And there's less to do (in my experience anyway). There's probably about 10 times more to do when you have kids, too!
I know what you mean though AA. There have been times when working full-time, keeping up with housework and having a social life simultaneously has really made me struggle.

Well, you know what that means.
