What's something normal in your home but probably weird in others homes?

I would
Keeping bread in the freezer

I currently have a house chicken too (she got injured and needs to be segregated for wound cleanliness). She's sitting next to me on the sofa atm after coming and demanding her digestive biscuit snack.

We've got a massive old church pew in our hallway.

I don't know if this is weird but I have to have music on all the time. My mum always comments on it, how I get home and put something on before I take my coat off. I hate a quiet house.

My son always has his breakfast in my bed, school day or not! He’s 9. Bizarre!

The photo with her nappy on hasn't loaded. Maybe the content was a bit NSFW!

I dymotape all my jars of pasta, pulses etc with names & cooking times.
A friend found this funny, but she regularly serves undercooked pulses & soggy pasta.

God bless mumsnet for thinking that something as normal and mundane as freezing bread Is somehow unusual

We have a few:

• have a king size bed
• use laundry tabs
• baby has a cot in her nursery

We have an area of floor we don’t walk on as thats where we eat.

We have a bum gun on all of the toilets.

I have a wall length floor to ceiling bookcase with an attached ladder, the building my flat is in is an old industrial building so the bookcase was left in when the building was converted. I bought the ladder online really cheaply and fitted it myself, I have always been too scared to actually try using it. The shelves mainly display my collection of dust and animal hair.

All of our plug sockets are in the floor.

A gun? For your bum?

I don't have any decent photos at hand unfortunately. I have some somewhere from a few years ago but not sure where they are stored. At the moment it looks very sad and in need of maintenance.

The garden does require regular maintenance, cutting a few times a year to encourage flowering at certain times and reduction of some of the more rampant species and removal of dominant grasses. I used a variety of wildflower seed mixes and collected seed myself from nature walks and abandoned sites. The following site is quite good and has a few tips.

It took longer than I expected to really get going but it certainly attracted birds and bees and was well worth the effort. A lot of my neighbours prefer decking and concrete gardens with fake grass.

We have an armchair for our cats.

Do the pinch punch first of the month thing but take it seriously enough to hide in the loft and drop down to get someone first!

@santabetterwashhishands if you know, you know

I love the sloth addicted dog !

@notsosmoothie A shattaf for cleaning yourself.

A regular job in our house is sloth redistribution. Our dog is obsessed with cuddly toys and for reasons too ridiculous to repeat, we have got ourselves into a situation where he collects sloths. He has to have a teddy to carry with him on all significant occasions, such as getting up in the morning or going to his food bowl, which means that we accumulate piles of stuffed sloths in the kitchen and on his downstairs bed and periodically have to sneak half a dozen or so back upstairs when he's not looking (if he sees you trying to take them upstairs he will mug you and bring as many as he can carry back down).

That is adorable!

Pecs symbols everywhere 😂

Us as well, I hate cutting velcro into little squares.

I've just been reminded of my antique dust collection .

Not my house but growing up my parents didn’t believe in privacy and would happily sit on the toilet whilst the other was brushing their teeth, for number one and two!
My brother has developed this habit and will go in his bathroom to take a dump whilst SIL is bathing their kid. I think it’s disgusting and surely not normal?!

No microwave. Never owned one. Never felt the need although obvs I understand what they can do - I just don’t ever seem to want to do those things.

When l shower, I put conditioner in my hair, step out the shower and brush my teeth naked before getting back in the shower to rinse conditioner out

We have an outside loo.

Oh well, I’ll admit to being one of those weirdos who hates outdoor shoes being worn indoors. I have a no shoes policy but I don’t totally enforce it with visitors / work people. I do secretly feel 🤢 when people wear shoes on my carpet though. I also freeze bread, milk and grated cheese.

We have a no shoe policy at all times and all guests would be asked to remove. We also have bathroom flip flops that are by both bathrooms and shower room doors

Your posts are like another language to me 😂

I'm still not understanding your explanation!

My bedroom is feet from a massive pond and in springtime I can constantly hear frog sex happening. And I really mean constantly.

I’m sorry, English isn’t my first language so I’m not great at expressing myself in writing.
