If for one week somebody came in and did a chore for you what would it be?

Mine would be somebody to put ALL the clean laundry away. It's neverending.

waikikamookau · 22/06/2013 09:38

EagleRiderDirk · 22/06/2013 09:39

Dusting, I hate dusting with a vengeance!

mrspaddy · 22/06/2013 09:40

I love dusting though

Wash the kitchen floor My cat does nt eat he smears meat everywhere it's beyond gross scraping up hard cat meat

Either the washing up or sweep, hoover and mop all floors. Even though its a small 2 bedroom flat, with open plan kitchen and front room, just seems to be a never ending amount of hair, fluff etc on the floor

Tidy up

JollyShortGiant · 22/06/2013 09:45

I hate cleaning the bathroom. With a passion. Anything else is not so bad.

CaptainJamesTKirk · 22/06/2013 09:47

Ironing

bulletwithbutterflywings · 22/06/2013 09:49

The washing. Bit they would have to do all of it - sorting to washing to hanging out and tumbling to putting away. This feels like my whole life!

bootsycollins · 22/06/2013 09:51

Deep clean of the bathroom please

Graceparkhill · 22/06/2013 09:52

Agree- the bathroom is my least fave chore.

I like doing the bathroom Jolly. I'll swap you for the hoovering Smile

Moomoomie · 22/06/2013 10:06

I'm with butterflywings on this one...... But can I have longer than a week?

Sorting out the washing! I hate it!

4leafclover · 22/06/2013 10:15

Sorting the washing out..Definitely the worst job in the world!

TheCrackFox · 22/06/2013 10:16

The whole laundry process - sorting, washing, drying and putting it away.

VerySmallSqueak · 22/06/2013 10:20

To go through and sort out all the paperwork.
If there's time left over to sort the loft out.
Then the sheds.
And weed the main flowerbed.....

How many hours a day can I have them for???

xigris · 22/06/2013 10:28

Laundry. All of it. Washing, drying, sorting, ironing and putting away. Would be wonderful

Frontdoorstep · 22/06/2013 11:16

Probably the hovering. However, I love doing all aspects of the washing. If there's no washing, I go and look for something to wash.

amigababy · 22/06/2013 11:28

??? at laundry, we hardly seem to have any, at least not enough to cause anguish , there are 3 of us.

My choice is gardening, a full week might just sort it out

expatinscotland · 22/06/2013 11:28

Mopping. I fucking hate it.

SirChenjin · 22/06/2013 11:30

Declutter the house and garage and take everything to the tip/recycling point

greenhill · 22/06/2013 11:40

Hoovering: but you'd spend at least an hour or so picking up a tidal wave of toys and plastic clutter off the floor first.

I'd happily do someone else's laundry, pegging it outside, ironing it and folding / putting away though
