Mrs Oraclesmith is cleaning the house at this very moment... Hasn't been done for a while though. We both work (her more than me at the moment!) so we generally leave it for a while before having a blitz. Mind you we have to continually tidy up after our small son. We keep meaning to get a cleaner but (a) we are too tight to pay for something we can do oursleves and (b) we don't trust 'em in the house !
I would think the correct answer is a....judging by your taste in suits

Ah, the old 'marriage is great she washes up' defence. Really convincing and you meet so many happily married people I find.
I have uses for a woman but a bit of washing and ironing takes a trivial amount of time, collect like colours, place in machine, remove and hang up iron while watching telly - 2 hours a month I reckon, mostly while watching telly anyway !
Haven't lifted an iron or stirred a saucepan in 8 years...and I'm sure Mrs Flubster wouldn't want it any other way.
Doing the ironing I don't find too bad. I can watch telly at the same time and not feel so guilty that I should be working. However, getting the washing done in the first place !!!!!! I must get a washing machine now that I've decided to keep this place on.
Why have a dog and bark yourself. Surely, now there are no tax benefits to marriage, the domestic help agreement is the only thing worth the paper it's written on. Haven't lifted an iron or stirred a saucepan in 8 years...and I'm sure Mrs Flubster wouldn't want it any other way.
