So it's "that weekend" - outlaws down for the long weekend (see previous thread). DH is responsible for preparing the house for their visit. He asked me a fortnight ago to write down all the jobs that would need doing. He's decided to leave it until today to do any of them.
He came to me beaming earlier because he'd hoovered the downstairs. I of course agreed that he was simply marvellous for having achieved such an onerous task all by himself 
but was a bit surprised to discover it had been done first, ie before everything was put away, any surface dusted or kitchen work tops cleaned. He's hoovered around furniture rather than under it (including the dining table, chairs and kitchen bin. Even shoes in the hall.)
Apparently I WB extremely U to point this out and how was he, a mere man in the 5th decade of life on this planet supposed to know that. Have been called a perfectionist for expecting him to engage his brain.
So, WIBU?
And WIBU, the next time I decorate a room, to not move anything and just paint around it? It's clearly the way he thinks things should be done. 
AIBU?
To point this out?

What is the final plan for the weekend OP? I have followed with interest 
You are a far nicer person than me. I would have been elsewhere for the duration.
I hope it all goes well...............

Looking at the list, Hoover is the last item for every room. 
Plan is he deals with them, looks after them, waits on them, cooks for them or takes them out and DC and myself will join in if we want to. They're won't be abandonment for beer festivals or anything else - one attempt and I'm out of there, either with DC or on my own.
