You know who you are...... Could you please get on with mowing the lawn or sorting out the garage instead of browsing on here? 😉

Thank you lovely x

No!

Now be a good woman and get back to the kitchen where you belong.

😉 (just in case anyone thinks it is a serious comment)

Mr judeyoga gets a choice of doing either? 😯
Id pick 'sorting' the garage.....cue hours of bike fettling to avoid doing the lawn!

He's probably already done that kimbers, and it's not you MSP, he's probably running off now pretending he was doing it anyway 😀

If it were me I'd have been out doing the mowing by now.

Or tweeting about the indignity of it, at the very least.

The irony is, if I had a garage and Mrscamo16 wanted me to clean it, I'd much prefer being home, doing that, rather than being here, reading this. BM, get those jobs done! As mentioned, before-after shots are essential. 😉

What if a poor baby robin has fallen from its nest onto the lawn and is shaking with fear waiting to be rescued by its mother; do you really want to be responsible for killing baby robins?

Or a small child may have wandered into your garden and tripped in the long grass; you could mow its face off; I know I wouldn’t want to take that risk.

Eewww!

Do I really want to know about the jumper references?

He won't be tidying the garage, we've been married 12 years....it takes more than this to spur him into action 😉

The jumper references are not bad; during heated religious debates, BM has suggested that of the many things he is thankful for, you and the contents of your jumper rank very highly indeed.

This has had the effect of stopping any arguments about theology while gentlemen's minds turn towards curvy wooliness.

I've probably got him into way more trouble than he deserves, but if he's being a slacker...

BTW husband if you're reading this, the compost heaps need turning over and weeing into.

It's good for breaking down organic matter. As our heeps are raised up, I'm certainly not going to do it, neighbours would think I'm barmy.

Fair enough, but if I know guys your fella only does it so he doesn't have to go upstairs for a wee. 😉

Well, although I doubt anybody wants one, here's an update. I was forced into trimming judes undergrowth, and am now preparing to either make a brew, or swoop mercilessly on to a vole. YOU DECIDE!
