        Brilliant!

        I must admit, I have noticed my dear old mother having a propensity to drive into the kerb every 3 seconds....it's rather alarming.

        Whever she phones up to say "it's ok, I'll pick you up" my wife often chips in and says she will drive instead.
        If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

          Quite a cunning ploy on the part of your mother then!
          It's Deja-vu all over again!

            Curses!

            These elderly are still getting one over us!

            So when my mother cooks such awful family meals, this is deliberate as well?

              Age and experience beats youth and enthusiasm all the time.
              Hard Brexit now!

                Only if you or Mrs hyperD offer to do the cooking as well. Don't you men deliberately break plates when washing up so that your Mrs takes over?

                  Sadly KW, in our household I do the cooking and the washing up (dishwasher though).

                  But it is still true: we offer to do the cooking as well and I think my mum makes an initial fuss but actually is quite glad that we do!

                    ...I'm glad that my partner does the cooking too.....mind you once he starts work (in 2 weeks time) I'll be sharing the washing up.
                    Sadly, no dishwasher
