Fair enough - I don't mind doing it as it's never that dirty and there is some degree of satisfaction in seeing my handsome reflection in the glistening paintwork! Also, the going rate for a carwash here is 500php! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffH Posted August 12 Posted August 12 This is a minor annoyance... not even that bad... it's a mini minor annoyance 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffH Posted August 12 Posted August 12 (edited) More seriously... my better half enjoys small DIY projects (which is good) but she has this annoying habit of starting them after we've eaten dinner, when I just want to rest. Attempts to start projects in the morning invariably get brushed away... later na. The latest example, I bought a heavy duty CR cover seat/lid with soft descend to replace the cheap half broken one we have. I said *I'll do it tomorrow morning* then about an hour later she comes upstairs and says she's taken off the old plastic seat and lid but the new one is different (adjustable to fit different models) and she doesn't know how to install it. Now I either have to put up with no toilet seat tonight or I have to go finish it... now *sigh* Edited August 12 by GeoffH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would she do that....when they shout in person also.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support scott h Posted August 12 Forum Support Posted August 12 Agree with all of the previous gripes......my pet peeve is leaving the door open. Whether it be to the outside or even worse to our air conditioned room, both the wife and the maids. I just want to shout my mother's favorite phrase. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, here in the province a daily salary of 500 peso is considered on the high side. True even for skilled labor, general unskilled labor is less. A year or so ago there was a sign along the road near our house. "Car wash 10 peso". Edited August 12 by Mike J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
