It makes a difference if they are awake?!
Well yes, some things are beyond contemplation outside Thailand.

Re: Things Husbands Should do...
I expect my OH to...(when he's not on exercise/deployment)
.....cut the grass
....put the bins out
....do the BBQ'ing
....he also does other things such as the hoovering, making the bed after I've stripped it, put the washing on/out/bring it back in etc
I then cook for us, USUALLY make his lunches and do the grocery shopping, if he gets groceries he comes back with all of the fancy, very expensive variations of what we use, he hasn't a bloody clue lol
Generally he is very good, but has one MAJOR fault, being in the army for the last 19 years, he is WAYYYYYYY TOOOOO TIDYYYYY and sometimes goes on tidying sprees which totally does my head in!
Don't get me wrong I'm not a dirty minger but I don't believe in a place for everything and everything in its place! ARGHHHHH lol

Re: Things Husbands Should do...
Well for us it's just a matter of what is more convenient Jen, it's a helluva lot easier for me to go out and cut the grass than wait for hubby to get some time off at the weekend to do it. He actually does all the strimming for me and all the hedge trimming etc, so it works out quite good really.
