Yep just show him how Mr.B can't work a Dyson and that will be enough:rotfl:
My DS can also cook, clean, budget and iron..all good training for the Navy.He did want to go in the Army when he was little and used to black his boots and shine them just in case..bless.
Pity his dad never learned anything...he just doesn't take anything in to do with the house..or hoos as it is called in Geordie language:cool:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Bob - commiserations re Mr Bob - been meaning to ask you - how is dd 2 keeping now ? She wasn't too good before you went to Cornwall. Also is your ds definitely going into the Navy ? XXNothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task. William James0

Well Ellidee she has had further blood tests and a short spell in the general so has been found to have a water infection which was sending her blood sugars all over the place.
All cleared after a strong course of antibiotics and is fit and well again thanks.:D
DS is very focussed on the Navy, he is not academically inclined and wants to earn money..don't blame him really. He is training every day at the moment and in all honesty has given him the focus he needed.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
