blandy Posted June 24 Moderator Share Posted June 24 yesterday I had the place rewired and slung out all of my junk. A tumble dryer and a two bar fire and a telephone now defunct. I peeped through the venetian blinds and the rain fell down so sad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they move them about the house to make us have to ask them questions like that , I bet there is xxxH29 and xxxxP65 on mumsnet telling random people on the internet how they **** their husbands up by moving the location where towels are stored on a regular basis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Where should a hoover live? Under stairs cupboard Where do you keep your main, indoor bin? Corner of the kitchen. Where do you store recycling when it's done? Next to main bin in a different bin. Carrier bags? - Under stairs cupboard Tea towels - drawer below the cutlery.

Rob182 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Cordless vacuum has a cupboard in our kitchen which it shares with mops and brooms. Henry has a ‘cubby hole’ cupboard on the landing. General and recycling indoor bins are both in a pull out cupboard in the kitchen. Outdoor general and recycling bins live out the front at the side of the house. Carrier bags have their very own cupboard (under sink) in utility room. Tea towels in top half of right-hand-side cupboard in our island (right of the sink) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an extremely British word Between the time I have spent there, years of regularly communicating with English friends, and watching a ton of British TV my vocabulary is pretty solid Edited June 24 by Nor-Cal Villan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitchen towel makes a lot more sense. Bloody obsessed with tea us lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
