Idiot Of The Month Award

[Barmaid]

I am in two minds as to whom to award the March accolade to - its a difficult choice between Mr BM and son of Mr BM or me for putting up with it.

1) Mr BM made up some cables to link his stereo to him amp and to his blu ray player. 30 minutes after he had turned said system on the electricity went off. He dashed in the kitchen to me and shouted "What have you done?". I was actually filling up a bucket of water to wash the floor. Of course the electricity going off MUST be linked to something I did and not his dodgy cables.

2) He cleared the dining room table on Friday night in an inebriated state and accidentally chucked out one of my very rare and very expensive silver georgian teaspoons. I had to go through the bin - whereupon I found the spoon and also one of my shattered crystal champagne flutes which he had omitted to mention.

3) I noticed that the soap dispenser in the downstairs loo was dispensing quite thin and watery "Soap". Turns out, son of Mr BM has been taught by his mother to top it up with water every time he uses it "to make it last longer". Apparently, he also does this with shampoo and shower gel bottles. Consequently, when I go into his bathroom and randomly shake the bottles to see if I need to add them to the shop, they feel full. He has been bathing in just water for about 3 months.

Over to you, whilst I go for a lie down in a dark room.............

Aren't they just Sloopy?! The entertainment value I have had out of them this weekend is priceless. And they love their old mum and come for a cuddle.

Just keep repeating my mantra: Why do I bother?
