I'm also in your situation, but as Mr B pointed out, a fairly large part of it was from me turning into bit of control freak at the beginning after baby B born and wanting to take charge. Don't want to turn into nagging partner, but find myself sounding horribly like my mum at times... Got a cleaner though even though can barely afford it - so worth it!

That I am not susie homemaker and have no such aspirations cause a bit of friction in our house! I AM making an effort to keep things clean and tidy, but I would rather spend time doing fun things with bub. and, um, keeping up to date with the family room(s) on this fine forum...

I work also but only two or three (part)days per week so it is up to me I guess to keep house, it's just that my husband and I have different ideas of what a kept house is...

*sigh*

what i find interesting is if they want it cleaner well then clean it?? and the same goes with cooking. the amount of men who 'enjoy' cooking but get hacked off because their partners don't enjoy it. well, why don't you cook every day mr if you enjoy it? because i've never really heard of a woman getting moody because everyone else refuses to cook in the house...


i cam ask mr plimsoul to hang the laundry, or hoover etc... but is always i who initiate. at first he totally refused to get a dishwasher, but i ignored him. then he refused to get a cleaning lady but again i ignored him and we're all pleased that i went ahead without him!

    • Not strictly a new place but new to me: stumbled across a fabulous cocktail bar at 210 Rye Lane - we loved the gorgeous, eclectic interior, they make any cocktail you can imagine and will be doing small plates. Think it's called XOTO? opposite the Tesco express at that end of Rye Lane.
    • This drives me absolutely mad. Why is all the food they sell there so effing noisy? Popcorn, nuts, crisps. Why can't they just sell stuff like rolls and ice cream? Is it because those are harder to store and more perishable? It's so inconsiderate to other people, like having your mobile on loudspeaker on public transport.
    • This seems to be the end of the road for now: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c36594lr29ko.amp
    • S24? I just googled Royal Mail complaints and it went straight to this page. If you phone Royal Mail you can also make a complaint, though it takes forever to go through all the options and then to speak to someone. It's probably a lot quicker to do it online. Not that you will actually get anywhere in this case. You are probably marginally better off contacting your MP, not that they will probably get anywhere either.
