Can't do housework without music on
Have to get rid of all those annoying leaflets before I open a magazine
I always eat my veg before my meat ( used to get told off as a child for leaving the veggies )
My niece sniffs all her food on the fork before she eats it confused

I completely disagree. It has to be furthest from the wall - otherwise I will turn it around.

Toilet roll should most definitely hang with the end to the wall and not away from it.
And on the top of the list of world's most dumbest inventions should be those covered toilet roll dispensers which only allow you to have the toilet roll unwinding the wrong way - ie away from the wall! rolleyes

19 Nov 2006

There is only one way and that is with the end furthest from the wall, there is no way you can leave the end folded into a triangle if its the other way around. :smug:
anyways I've got others, the foods have reminded me. I like anything Bannana flavoured, but dont like Bannanas. I can eat and enjoy pasta in any shape other than spaghetti makes me feel ill just to see it.

Just makes it so much easier to grab it that way. Stops childrens hands going anywhere near the wall :eeek:

ummmm..... oh gosh I have loads.
Tea towels have to be folded and ironed length ways. :shock:
Pillow cases the same. confused

my tooth brush has to be stood with the bristles facing out of the cabinet.
toothpaste squeezed form the bottom.(I will spend ages squishing it all up properly before I use it- after my son) lol

I get nervous when invited to eat around other peoples' houses unless I have seen their kitchen first- it isn't clean I can't eat there. redface

And will make up all sorts of elaborate excuses not to have food cooked by them. I am the same with having a cup of tea/coffee.
socks have to be put into pairs before going in the drawer.. I loathe single socks in drawers. rolleyes

Consequently I have a bag of single socks that will eventually get paired up when I find their mate.
I really dislike being late..... and if I am going to be more then later than ten mins early I will ring and let people know that I am "late". I would rather be an hour and a half early than 1 min late.... mad

Having read through all these posts, you lot have now confirmed to me that this is definately a 'nuthouse'. lol

I personally cant see a slug or a snail crawling up the garden wall without running out, grabbing it, and tossing it into the neighbours garden. :twisted:
Does this mean I am an inmate as well? wink

It really does depend if the snail / slug was heading for your neighbours in the first place, if it was, it just makes you a good samaritan.

Hate it when it rains, hundreds of the little buggers seem to appear from knowhere. Or maybe the neighbours chucking them back again.!! lol

Well I think the toilet roll should hang away from the wall but RD thinks it should hang down the wall - this is where compromise comes in to it.................................we have a loo roll holder which takes 2 rolls so, 1 gets put on the way RD likes it and the other 1 gets put on the way I like it lol

I think that's fair!

When I use the last of bubble bath, washing up liquid, fabric softener or shampoo I have to add some water to make sure I get the very last drops. The thought of wasting any makes me shudder :shock: I think it comes from my Nan who, especially after the war years, wouldn't waste a thing and she even used to boil the chicken carcas to make soup for another day
Or maybe I'm just a tight arse :giggle:

I agree... hanging bitat the front
OK I now have visions of us all at munches after copious amounts of alcohol and frequent toilet stops having to change the loo roll around everytime lol

:lol:
The utensils hanging over my cooker have to be in order longest on the left moving to shortest on the right. I have to peg things on the washing line with matching pegs and I use all the orange ones, then the yellow ones, then the pink ones, then the green ones
