The Dogmother Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I hang out with small things on the inside, shaken first, but I don't hang by owner of the garment - life is too short for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Licken Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I am slightly worried about my list.... here goes... 1. My hair is rapidly going white and I refuse to colour it. 2.

I love my bad tempered old dog and would not be with out her (except possibly when she gets me up in the night again and again) 4. I like reading, but not things that make me feel miserable. 5. I often feel lonely. 6. I love being outdoors 7. I don't like to be defeated by DIY, even though I don't like it very much. 8. I habitually listen to radio 4 for company. 9. I hate reality TV - it is pointless 10. My favourite music is by Ludovico Einaudi and is very peaceful. 11. I love my OH and miss him everyday - so far away. 12. I like doing quiet things 13. I love gardening, but am not very good at it. 14. Chocolate - Yumm 15. I am very shy and it stops me from doing things. 16. I would love to have children before I am too old. 17. I can drive a car, a motorbike and an HGV (mis-spent youth) 18. Living here is the only place I have ever sounded 'normal' 19. I am rubbish at ironing and let it pile up until it threatens to take over the world. 20. I quite like ironing 21. I go to church and quietly have my faith. 22. Soon it will be pancake day . Thik of all those lovely eggs. 23. I tend to be a bit reticent and must get on with my life!! 24. I find writing lists difficult. 25.

Chookiehen Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm also obsessive about the dishwasher I'm obsessive about the dishwasher, and cannot bear to let anyone else load it. If they do, I have to go in afterwards and redo it. As for the washing line, undies don't get hung outside, after my frillies were stolen off the line at our last house, and the rest gets chucked on any old way. Although, like Snowy, I only use alternate lines on the whirly gig for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Marple Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 thongs as bras, Parachute pants as bras, OH pants as bras, OH boxers as bras! Sorry but had to quote a tiny bit - chiefly cos I want to know what parachute pants are????? Now I've taken just a section of your text it makes your underwear sound rather interesting in an odd sort of way I'm not really obsessive about washing - it gets hung out only when I am at home which is halfterms and usual holidays - I do hide the undies on the inside of the whirlygig though and use alternating lines - no air flow without! Any peg will do ...(bursts into song) Why would anyone hang shirts up by the top? It's a bit like the loo seat - male issues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, like Snowy, I only use alternate lines on the whirly gig for some reason. I bought a bigger one last year. OH said I wouldn't need a bigger one if I used all the lines What does he know? I purposely didn't mention my dishwasher obsessiveness. If son and OH have stacked it I make them add the detergent and switch it on. If I opened it I would have to rearrange it.

Janty Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 If we can add more... - I met the Adrian Wright from Human League once while I was going to work. He was in the studio next door and casually said that he used to be in a group as we were talking. I knew this already as I used to be a HUGE fan (pre arrival of girlies, especially the up herself blonde one who can't sing). - I am related to Boris Karloff (or William Henry Pratt) on my Mum's side. - I bought three new pairs of shoes today. - My gorgeous lovely hubby brought home sixty red roses for Valentine's Day. - I can't sleep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
