19:1268986Yes i know im opening up the flood gates here but i feel the times come to do the age old battle . Here i share a personal few tit bits of my life with Mark
1. i once left him in charge of painting the kitchen , i came home to find THE WHOLE kitchen done including the CUPBOARDS and DRAWERS bright yellow!
2. Sunday he cooked a roast dinner but thought All glass dishes were oven proof so as he pulled the dish of stuffing from the oven it exploded!
3. Gardening i trusted him with , i wanted borders i got them, but the neighbours asked if they were mass graves the size of them
4. Let him go shopping once before to be presented with a bag of 40 sausages and 30 beefburgers for the weeks meals , you can only pull off sausage surprise so many times.
5. His gift wrapping at mxas etc a horror it look as through the gift has been scrummed by Dover rugby club.
So ladies and gents whats the verdict???? were men just a trial for god before he made us superior species ??????????????????????

I agree totally.

19:3968999points 4 and 5 are not confined to mark but to all us males.
let's get some balance here, why is it that women when in a huff go around slamming doors and drawers, act all sniffy with that expression that says "if you do not know whats wrong i am not going to tell you"?

20:2169013My better half doesn't know the difference between a conventional and a micro-wave oven. Put something in microwave and gave it 15 minutes !! And put a plastic cover over something in the main oven. Cooking is a foreign language to him. But he does put up with me which is not easy at times! He is however good at washing up and hoovering!! Doesn't know how to work the washing machine properly or the digital recording on the TV but is good at cutting the grass and cleaning shoes. You can't be good at everything.

20:3469016Just be grateful you have one Mel, for all his possible faults.
When they are gone you realise that the faults don't really matter and after a while you do not even remember those little faults that so used to drive you round the bend.
To answer your question we are defiitely the superior species, always have been and always will be.

20:4069021just spotted your post jan, that is right about the irritating habits and the fact that we miss them after they have gone.
when i lived in ilford there was a local chap in his 90's(great character) lived with his wife and her sister.
he suddenly keeled over, at the funeral i enquired of his wife how she was coping, she sobbed into her hankie and said "i am lost, he is not here for me to nag anymore".
not one of my wisecracks, absolutely true.

20:4469022My main problem with women is;
1.They can't multi task like what us men can!
2.Why do they always dye the roots of their hair a different colour to the rest of head.
3.Why don't they ever lift the toilet seat up when they have finished!
If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!

21:3369028Why do women always moan?
Why is it a woman that starts an argument?
Why do women always moan?
Why can't women accept that just one is never enough for most men?
Why do women always moan?
Why have I mentioned moaning three times? To all men the answer is obvious. To all women it is something to either moan about or start an argument over.
Why can't women accept they are the fairer sex and leave us to admire and enjoy them?
