Don't talk to me about fruit bowls!!!!!! :eek:
I don't think I've ever owned one that hasn't become a dumping ground for all manner of non-fruit-like alien objects!!!!! :eek:
When they start to overflow with alien objects the contents get tipped into a box/plastic tub - and yes, you guessed it, there a numerous boxes/plastic tubs of alien objects stashed in the shed :rotfl:
I won't even start on any other confessions“You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”0 -
I started reading this thread last night and ended up laughing like a drain. Then realised I hadnt laughed like that for ages. So my confession is my spare room. Its called the Tardis. I chuck something in then it disappears. There is all sorts in there. A bed, a dismantled computer desk, boxes of ornaments, a summer duvet, Mums stuff from when she went into care, Xmas deccies, and many other varied items. Trouble is when my bil and sil come to stay I have to sleep in there.

sillyvixen, my OH's mum says that too - she also doesn't wash clothes between Christmas and New Year. I wish she'd told me that I wasn't allowed to use the washing machine before we went there over Christmas/New year with only hand luggage... :eek:
yeah she says the christmas and new year thing with washing as well.Dogs return to eat their vomit, just as fools repeat their foolishness. There is no more hope for a fool than for someone who says, "i am really clever!"0 -

Hmmn, whilst reading this thread I was struck by how many people were having takeaway pizza's - thats a coincidence I thought - then I realised - you dont need cutlery or plates do you - brilliant. (Think might change our mind about our Indian takeaway tonight)
Have to admit house is not too bad at the moment but I have a thing about letting mine & DD's hair pile up in the shower plug - ifykwim - & leaving it for OH to remove - it really turns my stomach.
Off now to find the number for the pizza place.0 -
I have just got chocolate on my only clean jumper so I will have to a) wash one before tomorrow or b) sponge the choccy with a damp flannel.
Sponge? I use the method recommended by Dame Edna Everage - suck the chocolate out! Works every time!
PS. Wash ... car? Iron .... clothes?:heartpuls Mrs Marleyboy :heartpuls
