    Take them with you ;) If you leave via the kitchen, dh will follow and when his back is turned - bolt out the back door and hot foot it to Starbucks ;)

    ((moggins))

    I do know how you feel - my dh isn't off work, but, between his shift system, plus the children at weekends/holidays ... I've worked it out that I only get 5 days in 5 weeks in the house on my own as a "housewife" and even those 5 days are split over those 5 weeks!!! What's even worse, my dh is one of those who when he *is* home, takes over :mad: So, any "routines" I may have one week, alters the 2nd week, then has to be amended the 3rd week, juggled the 4th week and by week 5 I'm ready to strangle anyone within 100yds of me through sheer frustration and lack of *me* time!

    My DH tried to joint himself a few years ago, he tripped over the kids toys and fell through to glass front door :eek: He was driving me nuts for months!

    Seriously Moggins my DH went back to work 6 weeks ago after over 6 months off sick so I know how you feel. I found that I was dashing off to the supermarket to get anything just so I had 5 minutes peace.

    I've been Money Tipped!

    Spleen casserole anyone :confused:
    I thought the spleen was the bits of the rabbits the cat left out as toxic...

    Moggins; more seriuosly :Is he doing anything for himself or just feeling miserable and wanting the rest of the world to have a share of it?

    I have found a very informative site called Cooking with Mummy .
    Personally I liked..
    Nicolas Le Fevre gave a recipe for "mumiall balsam," also using olive oil. First you make your basic mummy by cutting up the muscles of a "young lusty man’s body," dipping them in spirit of wine, and hanging them in a dry place. If the weather is damp and rainy, "these Muscles must be hung in a Chimney, and every day aired with a small fire of Juniper wood, having all its leafs and berries, untill they become as dry and well seasoned as the powdered Beef, which Mariners use for long Sea-voyages."(
    ... but it does seem a bit of a waste of "a young lusty man's body".
    "Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.
