Hahaha nice one, mind he managed yesterday to bring in the wheelie bin, wash the few pots that were left and shut the gate behind him when he left lol.

Dan doesn't do cooking at all, he failed at the ruddy toast this morning and one slice was still bread. Honestly, his mother thinks he is 6, he can't even spread butter so i'm blaming her. I knew I should have gotten another puppy instead, much less work, lol!

I voted other as I do downstairs every day - hoover, wash floors, clean kitchen & downstairs loo, though hub does it on the days I'm working. Upstairs rooms get done once a week, but I'm always picking up after the kids, I do nag them to do it & they do it in a fashion which is fine but I go in after them & do it properly. On a Saturday I usually pick one extra job like the windows or clean the oven or the sofas if I'm in the mood.
I can't stand mess (I'm a true virgo) - unless it's my own as I know I'll clear it up. I don't mind housework it's ironing I hate!!!

I'm sure you'll get him trained up....just remember to make it fun and give him lots of reward . At least he should already be house trained

Has anyone tried the Lee Evans style "darling the rubbish needs putting out" in a provocative styley, lick you lips - you could be in for a good night if you do as I say works every time

i picked as and when as if the sun is shining then I'm out with the dogs rather than being in and doing housework! Working full time does limit my time for walks so I do tend to put the dogs above anything else.
