    My OH is tidier than I am :eek: and I'm OCD about these things :eek:

    Whatawit did you see that post a week or so ago...I think the poster was a bit upset by some of the OH bashing that goes on sometimes - I felt a bid sad that no one responded but wasnt sure what to say myself...

    Been to Primark awful as usual :p, but was good and got only what I went for - total spends £7.84 :D

    Becky, yes I did see that post, I think it was by Weller.

    Pooky, does he do training courses.

    If I didn't know better, I'd say my OH read this thread.
    He has just marched through....made a big show of emptying the dish washer with much clattering and banging. He put the tea plates and a few cups into it and has now left the kitchen.

    She actually posted it twice - once in the night and once again in the morning and I guess it was missed...

    My OH never uses his dishwasher - prefers to wash up!!!

    I saw it once.

    *wash up* isn't that some kind of deviant behaviour :confused:

    It was Weller, she sadly lost her husband just over a year ago in very sad circumstances. She was responding to an insensitive comment that was made. I didn't respond cos I was embarressed.

    We do do a fair bit of OH bashing on here (well some of us do) I for one wouldn't really want to be rid of my OH but I have to vent my frustration somewhere....:o

    Now that is a crime punishable by grounding :D

    Black marker pen always used to work in my student household - or you could give her a small amount of money for food each week and make her buy her own :p
