    Morning Shiney and Walnut,

    It has just taken me 18 minutes to get to this stage,this stupid computer.I tried logging in but all I got was the hour glass and nothing else then it said it was done,though it wasn't so I had to turn it off and start again.What a waste of 18 minutes I could have been out on my bike :mad:

    If you two did more during the day then you would have to be in bed at ten like me.It is easier for you men as you don't have the household chores to do like us women or else you pay people to do it for you :D :D Anyway,I get up early so I can cram as much as I can into the day before I go back to bed this evening.It is too nice a day to spend it asleep :D

    Have a great day everyone in all you do :cool:

    Morning walnut and Kandy.

    walnut,
    Do you think Kandy is getting at us men? [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Kandy,
    I had a busy day yesterday. It is hard work sitting on my backside talking to people or looking at a computer. :D
    Actually, apart from my meetings I did manage to do some cleaning, ironing and cooking.

    It looks as though it is going to be a lovely day so I hope everyone enjoys it whilst they can.

    Have a great day [​IMG]

    Morning Shiney.Oh no Shiney I would never get on to you as you might withdraw your advice as to the best walking up in the Lake District and then we would have to resort to the books [​IMG] :D

    Nice to see Mrs Shiney has got you well house trained in the art of cleaning,ironing and cooking :D :D Mr Kandy isn't interested in any women's jobs in the house but would rather be doing DIY which he is good at or up to his ears in engine oil,useless with money though :rolleyes: :D

    Have a great day assembling those cupboards and no swearing [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Hey Kandy, like Shiney I am a slave to housework it's easy don't know why you girls fuss about, the only thing I hate doing is shopping this is one thing that confirms to me that women are wired up differently how anyone enjoys it is beyond me,now where's that iron? [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Good Morning Woo and Walnut.I am late this morning and just can't get going.Perhaps it is because I am cold brrrr :rolleyes:

    Walnut glad to hear Mrs Walnut has got you trained as well in the art of housework.It is no joke when woman have to work full time,bring up kids and do all the household chores while the men sleep on the settee all night.And they are all payed lower wages than the men for doing the same job,bring back equality that is what I say
    [​IMG] :D

    Have a nice day everyone :cool:

    Morning walnut, woo and Kandy.

    walnut, I don't know about enjoying it but I do most of the shopping. I don't mind doing it because I have it all organised in my head and and just go and get what I want. I don't go shopping with Mrs shiney because I can't stand window shopping. :D

    Kandy,
    equality? I always thought you women were better than us [​IMG] :D

    Have a great day [​IMG]

    morning walnut, kandy and shiney and everyone.
    I get fed up food shopping and housework but there is no one else to do it, mind i dont work.
    When i had my children when they were little i did do shopping, housework and held a full time job in our business it was hard work dont think i could do that now.
    there should be a wage for housewives and kandy your right there is not equal pay in a lot of proffessions.
    have a great day

    Morning walnut,woo, Kandy, shiney and rosa.

    walnut, you can come slave with my housework any time you want to. [​IMG] It's quite easy as it's all ceramic floors and I don't wear clothes that need ironing! :D I'll then just send t'other half out to do the shopping as I can't stand that. :eek: What will I do, do I hear you ask? The garden, of course, and I love cooking! [​IMG]

    Must say, I got equal pay toward the end of my career, along with a car. However, although I never had children to care for, a high-flying job, sometimes on the road, maintaining a home and garden was more like double time, and that didn't include the two years I did extra manual work nearly every evening and weekend ... but my garden was often compared to Kew! [​IMG]

    So, off I am into the garden shortly before the heat of the day hits to get it looking purty again it the places that got sadly and badly neglected.

    Enjoy all you do today, folk.
