            As, I believe, the sole represetative of the male population in this (highly amusing) thread;
A ":p" to you all!"Part P" is not, and has never been, an accredited electrical qualification. It is a Building Regulation. No one can be "Part P qualified."

            My OH is banned from doing the washing as he shrunk my very nice angora jumpers! They would have fitted a small child!
He is also now banned from gardening as he has destroyed trees and bushes with his "pruning", last week I had a lovely cherry tree now I have a couple twigs, grrrrr.0 - 
            Upon reflection, given the choice, I'd prefer a wife. And I'm not even gay. Lol.0

I was mortified when a friend was suggesting men should have 2 wives, until she explained about a tribe in Africa.
My friend knew a family where there were 2 wives. One had a career she wanted in the city, the other stayed at home and looked after the children. When the husband was being out of order, they kicked him into touch. I think they both wore the trousers together. When she explained the benefits it sounded so much better than marriage here.MSE Forum's favourite nutter :T0 - 
            My OH left the freezer open........three times........
The last time I made him come shopping to Tesco and pay to refill it with all the prawns, steak etc that was in there, honest
Our fridge and freezer door beeps at you if it's left open for longer than 30 seconds. I'm like Pavlov's dog now, I just can't leave any fridge door open for fear of the beeps."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0 - 
            Glad its not just me who is annoyed with the OH0

            i need to keep this thread in my bookmarks to remind me why I dont actually want a man in my life when I get low and wish I had one.
Ive been on my own almost 3 years bar the odd fling, my dad mows my garden, my brother sorts any computer issues and mr big from a certain online site deals with my other 'needs' and then does literally go back in my bedside cupboard til hes needed again

Lol. It sounds like those two women worked out a way of getting a wife without being gay.0 - 
            Maybe we should swap.
I have a wife who stays at home, claims to be busy with the children (who are now at creche/school age), who goes out on the p*ss and appears to just cook.
I go to work, Do 1/2 the washing. Sort and put it away. Wash the dishes, tidy the garden, hoover up, clean up, & then the usual deep cleaning (under & inside sofa's, remove marks from walls etc).
After 48-60hr working weeks, I continue to moan and protest, but still no change seen.0 - 
            Maybe its a generational thing but my girlfriend would be much more likely to do something like that than I would!
Women certainly have their uses. They're good at cuddles, good at ironing and sex is always a nice bonus too.
In my experience (again maybe a generational thing!) but men are much better cooks. I do the majority of the cooking in my relationship and most of my friends are the same.0
