Proof that Men should not do the Washing !!!

***Dave*** · 25-08-2007, 10:27

Trying to help out with the washing today, I stripped the bed, loaded the washing machine & then when hanging on the line I notice a lump in bottom of quilt cover.

Now how did the TV remote get in there

Now on the patio table drying out

How did you not hear it clonking around the washing machine

P-E · 25-08-2007, 10:39

As much as I would like to help I find it better to leave it those that know what they are doing

Hope the remote dries out........maybe stick it in the drier

Either way, I believe it's stuffed

Some things are best left to the experts.

Good move mate, cock it up once and you are free from the burden of silly chores for life.

It worked for me and the cooking

***Dave*** · 25-08-2007, 19:39

Well the one time I tried to cook a breakfast, I marked the top of the new £1600 range cooker in the last place .... how was I supposed to know you are not to use a scouring pad on a ceramic hob

No more cooking allowed

Reminds me, must sell that cooker , as it's sat in the garage

***Dave*** · 26-08-2007, 23:06

Well, I left the remote out in the sun & with a new set of batteries it works fine ..... picture on telly is cleaner now too

***Steve*** · 27-08-2007, 07:23

Hmmmm...dare I say perhaps its an idea to do this with our cameras if it makes the pictures cleaner too

My husband washed a load of clothes with a marker in his pants pocket last week. Everything has little black marker marks on it now. The whole load was ruined. Now we have alot of junk/painting clothes.
