The sun has gone now and it's getting colder

It’s clouded over here too. Geordie has just been with my oat milk. I like DPD. Always on time and very pleasant drivers.

It went a bit dreary and dismal here so I just hopped on the Wattbike for an hour group ride rather than go back out.
 
Just been up to see SWMBO's sister

She has always been one of those wife's/mothers that sort everything in the house themselves

The perfect housewife sort of thing

well now she is paying for it all. She is too ill to do much and is asking her husband and the 2 kids that are still living at home (both over 21 by a fair way) to tidy things up, keep the bathroom clean and make the beds and stuff

They are not happy and don;t appear to know how to do it and it is driving her mad

Warning to all young parents - especially mothers due to social pressures - get them started early

Personally I lived alone for many years and HATED when I got home and found my Mum had been round and tidied MY house for me so I learned to do everything myself
Of course I did it wrongly according to my wife - but at least I can do it!!

Including putting a king size duvet cover on a duvet the right way round - which I must admit does seem like something that requires the sacrifice of 2 virgins and 3 unicorns under a full moonthe first time you try it

but then you have to learn - where the hell would you find a virgin unicorn in Widnes???

Afternoon all.

Hope everyone is well and keeping warm . I got a little cold volunteering for the Wildlife trust this morning .
I am hoping the weather gets a little warmer for the weekend ( and hopping for less wind than last Sunday ) so I can go sailing . I get grumpy if i have to go more than a week without sailing lol.
