Do you have any weird rules in your household?

[Sofasmurfing]

Mine is: nothing is allowed to be stored in the loft. Nothing. Not even Christmas decorations or suitcases.

I get the feeling that if just one thing is allowed to live in the attic, then all sorts of crap will be ‘stored’ there until we die.

Personally I don’t think it’s odd at all, but my DH thinks it’s utterly bananas.

Anyone else?

Probably just as well we had multi coloured swirly patterned carpets in the 70s 😁

I grew up on squash, Ribena AND fizzy drinks
70s and early 80s childhood.
I also had loads of sweets (10p mixes mostly) and crisps, puddings after our tea etc.

We have noisy pipes so no flushing the loo in the night! No flushing the loo if the washing machine is on. No putting the heating above 22 we can’t afford it. I don’t care if it’s freezing wrap a duvet round you!

I also have the same one cooked meal rule, everyone I know including DH and DC think I am totally weird

Not us but Mother in law has "rules" about hot drinks despite not having any herself. Theres about a 5 minute window between it being "too soon" after one meal and "too near" to the next. Yet she has no problem with people.drinking beer or sweet fizzy drinks non stop - as that's what she and fil do.
