rant!!
why is it that my hubby cannot wash up properly?? at 24yrs of age!?
i'm sick to death of going to put the "clean" dishes away after he has kindly done them - only to find that the bottoms of the pans/plates/dishes have got foody muck caked all over them, and forks have crusts bits of food still stuck on them.... one side of the chopping board still clearly dirty....
i've told him so many times, if your guna do it, do it properly, not just a dunk in the water then onto the rack - ive said it nicely, ive tried pointing out the dirt still left on things, ive told him the nasty way.....
but he STILL cant bloody do it!! i end up re-washing the whole lot. it's gross. arrrgghhhhhh

IMO just tell him to do it again, put it all back in the sink & when he asks why, say, "well it isn't clean so do it right first time then you wont have to do it twice."
Trust me, this is just man ploy for getting out of doing it so dont play into their trap by doing it for them.
It took a while by my oh finally realised that he wasn't going to be let off cause he was doing it wrong, only that he would have to do it twice.
lol - my OH refuses to do the washing up. But I now have a dishwasher so its all good 8\)

Linzi...maybe your should give him a dirty fork /plate to eat his dinner off. I know its disgusting but he may get the hint eventually! My hubby is really picky and checks his knife over etc before eating!
