NO!
NO! I'm off for a ride
FTFY 😀
Pook - get out of my house and away from my wife!
(Do the floors first though, eh?)
My wife knows her plaice.
My wife knows her plaice.
She's a fishmonger ? 🙂
Well, she asked me to fillet for her 🙂
😆
I tend to fit a few of those in during the day anyway working from home and I normally do all the cooking as well seen as I'm here.
Don't think I would fancy having the orders barked at me though, especially if its a busy day at work.

clean and mop floors - yes, if it's bike mess then seems fair, if not no
broadband, yes essential for stw
home insurance - yes, make sure bikes are suitably covered
cook, yes make all the stuff you like eg one massive chilli con carne/curry split into multiple bags
hob, no enforce the I cooked you clean rule
holiday, pack all your stuff and say there was no room for hers and/or put in stuff she hardly wears/cannot fit into, she'll never ask again
He he, someone "working from home" pretending they actually do a full days work 🙂
Is it just things that you like doing that are allowed to distract you.
If you had to do all that stuff it would feel like [b]working[/b], and if you were going to do a full days work, you might as well be in the office ! 😉
NO - I'm too busy playing GTA V with my laptop open on the desk next to me.
Can you not see I'm posting on singletrack, woman!
Have you mown the grass yet?

Mrshora is shockingly bad at cleaning. I literally have to bite my tongue when shes telling her friends how she spends her day off 'cleaning'.
Cleaning what? Using wetwipes isn't cleaning love.
tsk! does no one clean the windows in you house?
Cleaning what? Using wetwipes isn't cleaning love.
HA HA - the same here as well..
My missus is like that too - og, can you go to the veg shop, can you go in the loft for this, can you pick the kids up, can you drop the kids off (only in the pan fnarr fnarr).
Sure, so long as you spend the next 6 hours on conference calls listening to self important eejits while trying to do a days work and post on STW
hora- I fear our wife is a bigamist!
There is a difference I find, between actually doing a good job and appearing to do a good job.
put your headphones on and ignore her...
Sometimes when it gets to 7.30pm I go outside the house and then come back in and announce "honey, I'm home!" and then she gets the point at why I have been ignoring her.
Or if she was hassling me in the morning I will do that at lunchtime but announce "Honey, I am home for lunch!".
The i was a get out of gaol free card.
Yep Mrs1111 asked me to do all sorts of jobs today. so far i have hung the washing out (i need a fresh work top for tomorrow) i don't think ill be doing anything else if Im honest
for me it involves entertaining our errant toddler "just for a couple of minutes" whilst she attends to something important like getting her nails done...
"Seeing as you are off today..."
I work at home and have to continually remind mrs busydog that between actual work and reading posts on STW, there just [u]isn't[/u] time enough to take on any additional tasks
It don't matter whether it;'s home or at work. My wife think I spend my time drinking cocktails and talking bullshit,
but she's wrong about the cocktails
These are my favourites.
It's like a snapshot of inevitability. I'm not married, yet, but it will probably be to this one.
Horas Missus. Innit.
There is worse, when on nights it's assumed you can still do all of those requests during the day when you are doing nothing.
