Eednud Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Did anyone else have one of those "daily toothbrushing charts" when they were wee?? Some of us might remember The Happy Smile Club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 It's taken me 12 years of living with her to realise that regardless of the month and time of day she cannot enter a room without putting the light on. I personally rarely use the big light as I prefer to watch TV in the dark and pretty much only use the Kitchen light. She will come in at 6.00 in summer and still put the light on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rig up the switch so that she gets a small/or large electric shock. That'll put a stop to it. IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwullie Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Leaves her tea bags in the sink when the bin is closer. Does it more often now that I've pulled her up for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 We've a couple of friends coming to visit from Switzerland today so we decided on Sunday to give the house a proper tidy. Now I should stress that we were babysitting on Monday and Tuesday night so we were limited timewise. We had to sort out the garden, tidy the 2 spare rooms which have just been used as storage for lots of stuff (holiday clothes, bags etc) as well as a general tidy and clean. What's the first thing she wants us to do? Clean the kitchen cupboards. Not tidy up the room in which they will be sleeping. Not sorting the garden that we are hoping to chill and have a drink in. Not the living room where we will be a lot of the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had similar arguments, even if the visitors are not staying, she'll hoover under the bed etc. If they are under my bed at any point in the visit ill want to know why? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 She rarely answers her phone on my first attempt of trying because "it's on silent". (Well what fucking use is that?!) And she never answers if she doesn't know the number. By the time she does pick up my call I'm absolutely fizzing. Then she asks why I'm in a mood which sets me off again. It's genuinely that bad that we fell out at the hospital a few years back. (Thumb-gate!) The lassie at A and E asked if my details were still correct and that my next of kin was my mum. I said yes. We sat down and she was pissed off she wasn't listed as my NOK to which I told her she was warned she should start answering her phone or this would be the case. If she never answers then what use is she as a NOK?! After two attempts of trying to phone her she answered the phone the other day and I said I'd be home later than I thought and asked her just to order a takeaway. I asked for crispy duck with any sauce other than curry. Her response was "OK, text me". I've just fucking telt ee what I want why do I need to text it?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She went out with her pal lastnight, not planning to get drunk since she didnt want to be rough for our wee trip. Cue her rolling in after midnight gassed and is now rough as toast this morning. She thinks I am suitably pissed off about this where in fact I am buzzing at my new found position astride the high horse. Did you decide where to eat/stay? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will now order my steak blue so as to ensure maximum boakage for her when she sees me eat it. I'd be very interested on your opinion of McGonagalls, like I said it was shit for me but that was only one visit and I've heard everything from shit to the best steak ever tasted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
