i had to read it 4 times

twice through one eye

its the law

I have to sleep on the side of the bed which is furthest away from the bedroom door (in our bedroom that's on the left side, when you lie in the bed). But when we are in hotels we sometimes have to change sides, depending on where the door is.

I do the loo roll thing and the even number thing and I sit on the left side of the sofa, too.

I don't like things sitting by themselves on worktops, in cupboards or on draining boards etc, I have to group them together.

I don't have any strange habits, I am just surrounded by people with strange habits........They cannot open or close the curtains properly, they cannot hang the tea towel over the oven handle properly, they cannot stack their dirty dishes properly, they cannot make the bed properly........I could go on.........

 

And as for the toilet roll, why am I the only one that knows when started properly the sheets stay together?......... 

Same here, so we are normal!

are you married?

I wash my dishes in a certain order 

Are you strange tho Sprout?.....The correct order is....

 

Glasses

Cups

small plates

Cutlery

Dinner plates.....

 

That's more or less it Sydlers except I do all the plates before the cutlery 

then pans.

 

you forgot pans.

 

boiled veg pans first.

 

 then  any steamer you may have used.

 

 then fry pans.

 

and finally  roast spud pan.

Yes - for 30 years.

See I told you, you are all strange 

No, I like to see how strange hubby is when he attempts them 

well that man of yours is dedicated to you.

 

because he's shoved  from pillar to post  any  time you go on holiday.

he goes to  wipe his bum and the loo roll has been tampered with.

 

he cant sit on the  bit of sofa because you  get there first.

 

his stuff is grouped into collections .

 

( ok the last one is a bit weak)

Loo rolls have to be outwards, synchronised, sleep on left, never second hand breath, bath towels Always on top rail, bath mat Always on bottom with an empty rail in between, bread bags must be resealed, outside doors always locked, tv turned off at meal times, bedroom windows on night catch at bed time, no one is allowed to recline my chair, begrudge anyone even sitting on it! Different milk has its correct places in the fridge, my yogurts on right Rug's on left OMG and I could go on

He sure is - and in return, I take good care of him.

You just take the top layer and wind it the opposite way - then it matches! I can't find the words but - t works every time - honest!

Honest soozy... this was a rogue roll.     I'm quite au fait with the winding one ply the opposite way so they match technique.... and I did it, and it still didn't match... all the way through the roll I kept trying it  (how sad is that?)   it must have been offset at the start of the winding - I should have written to Andrex quality control now I think of it!  

 I was nodding to most of that. My 17 year old nephew had the brunt of my wrath when he scrunched his bath towel on to the towel radiator (it was still a step up from him just leaving it wet on the floor of his room though).

I cut all the tags out of my clothes  they bug the life out of me  daughter does the same as well 

Yes Louise we are normal 

Suzy feel your pain at towels not even and straight on radiators

Sockets that are switched on when nothing is plugged in to them MUST be switched off, even if you are not in your own home.  

 

The same goes for wall hangings that are skew whiff, they must at all costs be straightened. (A pub we visit in the summer has some pictures deliberately skew whiff, AND, they have them secured to the wall by screws, next time I visit I will be taking a pozi screwdriver with me ).

I do slurp mine tea something rotten and don't even realise i do it !!!

 . . . and i have an overwhelming need to clap my hands once after i have a wee

Very odd

Hope you've let go of it by then.

Ha ha ha

My grandmother was frightened by electrical sockets - she thought that electricity would escape from them into the room if nothing was plugged in, so insisted that they were switched off.

I too do the even number on the olume thing.

 

I'm particular about my washing (clothes etc) and how it's hung out on the line, i have got better though as i used to have to put 2 of the same colour pegs on each item.

 

I always fold bank notes in half and then in half again the same direction, have no idea why i do this but i just always do \/\/

 

I bet i can come up with loads if it think about it a bit.

Thats not weird, it's sensible

My mam does that too! They irritate her

 

Please stop, it's disgusting and you're making me feel sick

When i load the dishwasher i have 8 compartments in the cutlery basket, the two at the back are for forks as they are the pointy ones then the knives (butter knives not sharps ones they go on the top shelf!) as they are the second dangerous ones in the next two compartments. Then the front one is for tea spoons and baby spoons and the second from fron it for table and dessert spoons, i get annoyed when my family dont do this properly!

I do that too

 

Other ones I can think of, I have to sleep on the left side, I don't sleep properly if I'm not I like my tea to be brewed in a pot then added to the cup with the milk already in, none of this teabag in a cup then add milk nonsense I also eat my food evenly, if I have different things on my plate I'll have a bit of one thing, then another and so on so there is always the same amount of everything

Where to start

I dont like to leave coppers lonely in my purse you can tell if those two pennies are close and getting on, who am I to split them up

Bogroll .... Gotta be up and over

 

I'll change it if it's wrong

I do that too ...  but sometimes I missjudge & make holes

 i only like to drink tea out of  bone china  cups or mugs i can't stand drinking it out of  coffee  mugs, altho i do drink coffee  from  coffee mugs.
