to be fed up with dh booby trapping the kitchen sink? (warning trivial)

Dh consistantly leaves a pint glass teetering on edge of the corner of the worktop adjacent to the sink. If I go to the sink then invariably my arm/ elbow will knock the glass and it is so bloody annoying and avoidable! I place glassware, cups etc to the back of the work top to avoid accidents, knives, irons etc, etc all placed out of easy reach as we have 3 children aged 4, 6 and 8 and I'm clumsy

I just can't see why he can't do that as well - is there a magic form of words that will make him stop laying these domestic booby traps or do I need to ltb?Angry

Smile cheers

Ha ha! I once broke a treasured pint glass whilst washing up at my friends house because her oh does the same thing. Maybe if you 'accidentally' knock off & break a glass/mug/whatever he quite likes he'll realise the error of his ways. X

You need to nip this in the bud, he'll be incorrectly stacking tins in the cupboard next and that'll lead to towels not being folded properly

dunno... when you have found the magic wods let me know. the childens dad does not live here any more and still does this when he visits... grrr.

Unfortunately I regularly break cups and glasses and it makes no difference!

Who - don't even start me on how he stacks the dishwasher!Grin

Christ, DH here can't even hang the laundry right. Every single t-shirt is hung the wrong way round.
