Hate them all, but there is one that I detest above them all. Putting the bins out. Its ten times worse now that they only collect black bags once a fortnight, and its going to be ten times worse again in the next few weeks when they start only collecting 3 at a time.

Hey Council, if you want to force people to recycle then provide them with enough bags!!!!

Not fussy on any housework, which is quite weird as I honestly used to love if all.
I ironed yesterday, first time in months, only do it when I run out of bedding

general tidying up is my favourite cause i'm a bit obsessed with everything being tidy

but I hate actual cleaning/dusting/cleaning plates etc, and ironing

They do provide bags but it seems to be very random, they post a pack through the door once every few months (if you're lucky) that if I recycled everything would be gone in a month. How people with large families cope is beyond me. Can't even buy them, or at least I can't find them to buy. They do give out free ones if you go to their centre and ask, god knows where that is though.

Thought everyone just stuffed all their recycling in a different colour bin these days not in actual bags, doing the bins is the only household chore I do/don't mind doing, all the others are a nightmare

I don't mind doing stuff like mowing the lawn though

They collect green bags one week then black and pink bags the next here. Its such a pain. Plastics and glass (I think) are supposed to go in the pink bags, things like cans and tins in the green. I haven't had green bags for weeks though so it all goes in the black bags. They are only allowing people to put out 3 black bags at a time from (I think) next week. Which is just ridiculous.

Is it weird if I like ironing? Watching all the creases disappear is just super satisfying?!

well I must have it easy.
I don't mind ironing but obviously wud prefer never to have too they shud make all clothes crease proof.
I don't do dishes I have a dishwasher.
my oven is self cleaning so I don't do that.
the bins I have a little box what my recycling goes in then when its full I tip it into the right bin, putting the bins out.. all u do is wheel it to the end of your path lol
washing clothes is done by washing machine but mind I hate putting them away.
making the bed is easy fitted sheets and a duvet.
cleaning the loo on the other hand well ive just bleached my whole bathroom coz it was getting on my nerves and ive took out all the toiletries which half of I never use but they may have been opened, anyone know wot I can do with opened toiletries. that I wont ever use?
