BIL is coming over for dinner, nothing fancy. Earlier in the day I said I fancied a bath and asked DH if he could watch DS 15mo while I had one, but then I remembered BIL was coming over and wanting to relax without make up and in PJs after said it didn't matter.
DH's solution was for me to have my bath after dinner, he watches DS and to suggest BIL does the dishes and clearing up. I was 😮 and said we couldn't ask a guest to wash up, he said it was fine to ask BIL to do it and couldn't understand why I was shocked.
I have to admit that if I was someone's guest (literally can't remember the last time I was, mind you!) I would offer to help clear up but would be a bit shocked if they accepted.
What does everyone else think?
