    Just tell her to **** off !!

      Just paint it off-white then provide her with a pair of glasses to which you attach slivers of coloured cellophane. These are easily changed to suit her position in her menstrual cycle.

      You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

        Thanking you all
        Chores in the morning and then watch Wimbledon in the afternoon/evening. It starts next Monday.

        Talking about list of chores. Does anyone else find that once you've finished one the wife has another one lined up? Really getting on my nerves now.

        However, if I ask her to do something she either takes months to do it or does it really badly that I end up finishing it.

          I've no need of motivation, with a golden retriever who is *determined* to keep me amused.
