    What have you done wrong when your woman comes out of the kitchen to nag you?

    Made the chain too long.

    My mum never truly came to terms with a dishwasher.

    She'd scrub the dishes spotlessly clean as per usual and THEN load them in the dishwasher.

    It's a woman thing. At one stage, we decided to get a cleaner in, to help with the housework, as myself and the current Mrs Munstertoon both worked long hours.

    However, I noticed that on the morning the cleaner was due, the missus would be running around the house, cleaning and polishing. " I don't want her thinking we live in a pig sty" was her logical explanation!

    I've known my wife for 11 years and I can count on one hand the amount of times I have seen her run a vacuum over the floor. Actually, I could cut two fingers off of that hand...

    I came home one afternoon to find her vacuuming the carpet. I took a picture for posterity.

    I Facebooked the picture. She was miffed. Even more so when the comments of amazement were left... from all her family and friends :)

    Buy her a landscape calendar or something like that. All women over 40 like them.

    I used to work for them! Search engine optimisation. Rubbish though, they didn't listen. <grr> still, got paid.

    My max for our secret santa is a tenner, if anyone has any more ideas.

    Bloke, middle aged and likes a giggle. Nothing toooo obscene though, law firm

    Cheers

    Without prejudice.


    Give him a tenner, tell him you could murder a pint and ask if there's enough compelling evidence for him to consider your case and take you to the bar.

    A lot of women don't like these new fangled gadgets, can't keep up with technology. Prefer doing things the old fashioned way.

    I agree AB....wor lass is still trying to work out out the instructions on the 'poss tub' and 'mangle'.

    That's when she's not working as a psychoneuromusculartheorist.
