After all these years ladies when we were blamed for spending all the money.its now been proven that men all along were the ones that were useless with their budgets.:lol:

Think we need a woman for chancellor and maybe then the countrys books will balance.

i've alwas been left to make the money stretch as far as possible so i think for a wee experiment Oh can take charge for a wee while.:eek:

Well what do others think in the men v woman and "housekeeping" debate.

We tried that experiment 10 years ago CP. OH lasted about an hour after he discovered what benefit pay-day entailed in the days before it went straight to the bank and everything was paid by standing order and direct debit. He still has no clue how much he basics bread and milk would cost.:roll:

I was going to say the same thing.

So if there was a Woman Chancellor, she would change the colour of the briefcase because it doesn't doesn't match her clothes. :Razz

What is his is mines.
Whats mines is mines.:lol:

only joking.... hubby does the bills (mostly online) as I cant be bothered to do the comparisms looking for the best deals.
and I do food/grocery type shopping as I do the cooking and washing I can buy the stuff that everyone will eat and washing powder that doesnt make the girls skin react!

The money comes out a joint account.

Oops just spending his money on curtains from ebay that comes out of his account (not the joint one)

Very true Sweetpea but I also think its an attitude thing too between couples.
This time because its a "we" relationship I can save some money.:D
