Airing cupboard.

If you don't like it, do it yourself. Me, I take all the help I can get.

newlifenewname · 10/09/2007 20:36

Airing cupboard is what I say. I'm an old fish wife, it isn't a good way to be.

pyjamaqueen · 10/09/2007 20:36

OK, so it's an airing cupboard. My dh has NEVER opened the airing cupboard.

dissle · 10/09/2007 20:37

oh jeeez, you freak....if i were your dh i would jsut throw them in all crumpled...

do you think he knows this bugs you and does it on purpose! is possible.

seriously, i understand where you are coming from, it bothers me when my dh does this kind of thing but then i am anally retentive, so much so i even iron duvet covers which apparently is just not the done thing on mn!

Dabbles · 10/09/2007 20:37

grrr. but BUT he puts them in there, woudl take no more effort to seperate them! i put them in different piles when foldign away from washign line.. etc....

You are joking aren't you? My dh leaves his wet towels on the bed. My bloody side at that!

ShinyHappySchmooo · 10/09/2007 20:37

Is your surname B'ucket?

flowerybeanbag · 10/09/2007 20:38

Isn't it nice that your DP is helpful and puts towels away?

BecauseImWorthIt · 10/09/2007 20:38

Ironing duvet covers?

That's what the maid is for, isn't it?

I am lost for words!...

You're DH must be fecking brilliant if that is the most annoying thing he does (or at least the only one worth complaining about tonight)..

I can just imagine DH face right now if I got pissy that he didn't put the towels away in my preferred fashion...

lol....

dissle · 10/09/2007 20:40

and then you take out a bath towel ...and a tea towel drops to your feet.....

PHONE

THE

PoLICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VagusPabo · 10/09/2007 20:46

fgs leave her alone you bunch of vipers

clearly she's very distressed about her piles

have some sympathy

dabbles I think you should take him to Relate

Then leave him.

Dabbles · 10/09/2007 20:47

GRRRRR NOOO!! STOP I AM NOT BEING PEDANTIC!!!

I was the towels. I make sure they are dryed and folded. when he is on his way upstairs i shove a bundle into his hands and ask him to pop them in the cupboard (which is at otp of stairs) I have seperated them. all i ask is that he put the seperate pile sin thei ownn plave (which avoids him using bath towels as hand towels, which is a pin in the arse and increases washign to be doen by me!!)

he is only walkign upstairs with them!!! and only cos i have shove them at him! he doesnt deserve a medal!!!!!

Ah,it's her piles! Get some cream for them - nothing like piles to make you a bit tetchy.
