Have you explained to her that being allowed to do these things is one of the perks of modern day equality?
Don't get me started on the heating. I even bought a nest last year hoping she wouldn't be able to use it. Worked a charm until about 2 weeks ago. At least I can switch it off from wherever I am
The fact I don't have a merinque torch is a bone of contention. That I have never made , and never will make a merinque is not the point.
Not into ballet. I have to resist those sort of things being diabetic.Fortunately don't have much of a sweet tooth, preferring savoury stuff. Though a good scone with jam and cream is always a temptation.
As long as she realises that in less enlightened times a few years ago she wouldn't have been allowed to do these things. Presumably she makes you a cuppa before she starts and does it quietly so she doesn't interrupt your TV programme.
Need an air vent with a 7kw stove, or as you intend, along with all the other doors, just wedge the front door ajar as well. Register plate should be metal, with as well as the hole for the flue, access for a sweep to clear debris from the top of said plate. The access holes covered with a square plate secured by self tappers. Hearth should extend 300mm in front of stove.
Anybody tried convincing their other half that a tea light underneath the room stat will keep it dry from condensation?
Step daughter has just come back from Cyprus and her mum says she needs help to acclimatise which means it's about 30 degrees in our house. Stepson was grateful I dropped him back to York Uni on Sunday so it's me against two now.
No one heard of a fleece, and I don't mean one on a sheep, bit like duvets you can get thick, thin, our usual 1st step when weather gets a bit nippy.
I'm buying a house and moving in with my GF next year. Seriously the one thing I am dreading are the Central Heating wars. She was the only person I knew who felt cold during this summer's heatwave. As soon as the outside temperature drops below 25°C she wants the heating on. Uses a winter duvet in July! Wraps up on the sofa in a blanket while I'm sat around in a thin T-shirt and still burning up. Best thing I've ever bought is a mobile air-con unit. That's going in 'my' room in the new house so I'll have some escape from the furnace. It's honestly going to be the most inefficient house in history. She'll be cranking up the heat with central heating and I'll be chucking it straight out the window with the air con!
Ofcourse it doesn't HHH & BAAG, men & animals fart, women trump!! Cue the old joke; A little old lady goes to the doctor and says, "Doctor I have this problem with passing gas, but it really doesn’t bother me too much. It never smells and it’s always silent. As a matter of fact I’ve passed gas at least 20 times since I’ve been here in your office. You didn’t know I was passing gas because it doesn’t smell and it’s silent." The doctor says "I see. Take these pills and come back to see me next week." The next week the lady goes back. "Doctor," she says, "I don’t know what you gave me, but now my passing gas… although still silent, it stinks terribly." "Good", the doctor said, "now that we’ve cleared up your sinuses, we’ll start to work on your hearing." I'll get m'coat!
