craftyhunnypie Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 When you are about to go on holiday? Why do they decide to do silly little jobs last minute? Why do they find something else that needs ironing? Cook onions in the kitchen where you have just put your clean washing out of the washing machine & in the basket to hang on the airer? Decide that we have to go round neighbours houses the night before we go, incase we fall of the edge of the earth? Decide to pack their hand luggage & pop into town the morning that we are going? Wash the car? Just get under your feet & like to wind you up? Why? Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 A few of those things sound very familiar! Not that I'm ever annoying too, of course. Hope you get everything done & can relax, and have a wonderful time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 oh dear, the poor men are getting a bashing again I was thinking last night, I wonder why there are virtually no men that use this forum anyway, my husband is brill so I'm giving a 'big up' to the husbands out there that are made of... have a lovely holiday Emma! xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Do you know I haven't a clue! They are a total mystery to me too. I live with OH and 2 sons and 1 male cat and they mysterfy me daily. My OH grumbles about my packing (I'm like Joan Collins in that I dont travel lightly!) but when we get to our destination its "oh have we got this or that..." and voila there it is! Still he cant fathom women out either so I guess its equal. Life would be boring without them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 Mine is wonderful any other time - it's just when he's over excited about holidays! I wouldn't be without him though! It's our 4 year wedding anniversary whilst we are away. That's something to be proud of..I think it's paper this year? Maybe an origami chicken!

Snowy Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I love mine to bits - when I don't feel like throttling him! I think it's just in the genes, I must have the same effect on him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, yes, very true, you are wonderful Christian! Yes, men and our OH's are wonderful, just very annoying sometimes, but I'm good at being annoying too, it's a great hobby!

chickencam Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Mine always feels the need to wash the car before we go away, even though it will get filthy while we are away . He is great at packing etc though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm not moaning about all men - there are some real gems. It's just those little things they do to niggle you. Oh course I'm perfect in every way! You always end up laughing at 'their' ways & you know you'd miss them if they were gone. On a nicer note?...who loves their man?

Beware we are not all the same........ We try to relax by cleaning the car because we know that is the mode of transport to be use to go on holiday and we want it to be right for you. It also means we are keeping out of the way so not to get under any ones feet. Best regards Ian Ian & Valerie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
