I KNEW you'd post that brisket! 

... and because of you I've become a bit irritated by it too! 

Xochi 
I don't know if I should be flattered and worried that you know me so well.

I'd eat off of Corin. No issues from me.

Maths.    I can't think of an answer.    

Be flattered but not worried... it's a good thing, yes? 

**relaxes with a contended smile**

Don't get too smug... you're a Ben supporter! 

Not very hygienic is it?

oooh.... I thought that when I saw it too!   

Twas the feet bit that did it for me!

Not to mention the bottom

I've never understood why anyone would want to sit on a kitchen worktop - you wouldn't put your dirty knickers next to your breadbin, would you?

Perhaps one day they will sit on a bit of chopped chilli pepper and warm the whole of their bodies.

thinking of the hygiene issues in that house makes me itchy

I love my worktop

I sit on my worktop.... when listening to hubby do his "how was his day at work debrief"... 

but I am fully clothed...  and I only sit on the bit above the washing machine (before anyone says anything... on the worktop above it.. not on the washing machine)... which I don't use for food prep!

actually...  if I did sit on the actual washing machine the debrief would be way more fun

I couldn't get up on my worktop even if I wanted to 

Yeh, its good to do that.
I'm cleaner than any item i put on the worktop         <Love it lol

Im mental, there is no way id sit on my worktop...Other half looked at me like i was mental the other day when i had a small fit because he put the shopping bag on the work surface rather than the floor well, you don't know where its been. I have issues

I have my own little worktop surface, that's just for me
He puts me there, now i think of it, probably to keep out his way

..... and you lot that are against worktop sitting are missing out on some fab special cuddle time 

Ditto

i can think of much more comfortable places

I don't like children standing in shopping trolleys 

me neither...  though when my boy was a baby I used to have to put him in his car seat in the trolley cos he was too fat to put in the trolley seat...   he nearly got stuck in a trolley seat once! 

It would take a hell of an effort for me to clamber onto my worktops...so I just use a chair
