finleysmaid Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Ok so tell me....... why is that i put clean cutlery in a clean drawer and it still gets messy? and Why when i put a pair of socks in the wash do i always end up with odd ones in the basket? and why cars break down at the beginning of a holiday weekend...the only weekend of the year when you can't get them fixed? ho hummm!

louby loo Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 ............................................. and also so that you have enough odd socks at the end of the year so that each child in your setting can make a 'sock puppet' as a christmas gift! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I agree its a mystery. I've got a carrier bag full of odd socks which once a week gets tipped out on my bed in the hope some of them match the most recent ones to come out of the washing machine. Some of them have been there a very long time, but I'm loath to throw them out because the other one will be bound to appear shortly afterwards. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inge Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I to am an odd sock wearer.. as is my son.. drives my husband mad as his have to be closely matched.. and my sons partner is much the same..hates it but now has resigned herself to just throwing all his socks in a drawer and letting him get on with it.. I do know where his comes from.. when he was a tot the fashion was fluorescent odd coloured socks.. . and he never changed from the odd sock syndrome.. and mine... the need to use all those odd socks.. waste not want not..

finleysmaid Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 and some more to ponder...... where do spiders webs come from in the house ...when there don't appear to be any spiders! and why when i have a mainly white dog do i find black hairs all over the place??!! and why my family can find the top of the dishwasher but seem incapable of opening it and putting things in it!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyfs1966 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 these questions aren't unanswerable at all...in my house the "magic fairies" are behind all these deeds!! Same magic fairies that notice the beds need stripped, the washer emptied, the loo rolls changed etc!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) I used to have a notice above my bin 'If nothing will fit in the bin, it's full'. No-one seems able to open the laundry basket on the landing either Oh, yes, the magic fairies...where would we be without them?

Guest Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Oh, yes, the magic fairies...where would we be without them?

Inge Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Hubby: Where is that fresh loaf of bread, you know the lovely one you go today. Me: Its there I just had a slice Hubby: I was going to ask how you managed to eat it all..I cannot see it. 5 mins later Hubby: I cannot find it, Ill have crackers then! I walk into the kitchen and there sat on the bread board next to where he did his crackers sits the loaf of bread! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
