clucky1 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 YOoooooo Claret - Mutual strike - Just think if all the females on this forum all went on strike on the same day. The country would come to a standstill We could all just have a massive cake and coffee day. What would all the OH's do ??????????????????????

The Dogmother Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Can I make that cake and tea? We can all meet here and huddle around the log burner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I have to stick up for my hubbie here. He is one of the rare diamonds. He has to do the cleaning (apart from once a week when the cleaner comes), the ironing, bathing and putting the children to bed, walk the dog, clean out the litter trays, look after the chickens etc etc etc. Admittedly the house is a disorganised state, and he only does it because he has to (he promised to do everything if we could have kids because I have M.E and he's stuck to his word) but I always feel for him when blokes are being had a go at, as he's so brill (yes, I am smug! ) do you know what, i really need to go for an eye test, I read that as "milk the dog"! I have to agree, my husband is amazing and I don't need to tell him either...because he'll read this post later on no doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HennyPenny Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 My husband is brilliant too and does lots around the house...... and, yes, he told me to come on here and write that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 aaargh ... trouble is, I USED to be like that (and I don't have an OH so I have to do everything myself. And there's "Ooops, word censored!"ody to blame when things don't get done!). Now, it would read something like turn the TV off, turn lights off put cups in dishwasher straighten cushions etc. etc. go upstairs, turn computer on clean teeth while waiting for it to warm up just sit down to check emails ooh, wonder if there are any posts on the Omlet forum ah yes .... eek - it's 11.30, I need to get up at six, how on earth have I managed to spend an hour on here?

Tiggy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Do you reckon that we all ought to go on strike for a week - see how they like it? I'm on an enforced stike with my leg in plaster, he doesn't like it at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I'd be up for it except for knowing that the following week I'd have all the mess to clear up! Generally though my OH is fab, he's not fussy about dusting, hoovering etc, if he thinks it needs doing he'll do it hmself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
