Time as a commodity becomes increasingly precious as we get older, and I wouldn't be spending much of my 5 hours a day leisure time on cleaning, that's for sure. Luckily Mrs. P does most of it. If it were left to me our standards would be rather lower, but not minging.

I did actually employ a cleaner but her house burned down and she had to move away before she even got started.

I think it is the giving a shit that Gaz is talking about.

Time is the thing though, I'm out 11 hours a day and I like to get 8 hours kip, that only leaves 5 hours for me which is either music or telly time. Back when I was on the rock and roll the place was immaculate. Old houses harder to keep clean too.

Wot - it's only women who give a shit how clean the house is? That's not true either. I'm more fastidious about that than Del is - always have been. Ditto my dad, compared with my mum (and he was the one out working all the time), although neither my mum or Del were/are mucky pups

However, I agree very much about older properties being much harder to keep clean.

Or, you have much more of it than you've ever had, because you're retired!

That's the healthier reality. TIME is defo a precious commodity though, regardless, and for me *MUCH* more important than money, for all sorts of reasons, most of all considering the effects of the current pandemic...

Not much point having worked like a dog for years, amassed pots of cash in the bank, and having sacrificed your personal relationships accordingly, once you're dead!! That's why you also have to live for the moment, not just plan for the future, as the future you've planned might never happen.

Well im mega OCD with the housework. Chezza is that one thats not too fussed.

My mate has an original Arbarth 500 - he also has a Ferrari, and often takes them both to local car shows - the 500 always gets the most attention, especially from the ladies! It’s absolutely immaculate as all his cars are, and yes, have to agree they’re cute!

Yup, they're gorgeous little things - proper driver's cars! And I'll be ensuring that it's kept as finely-tuned as possible, and always looking immaculate

I had a mate who was looking for a house to rent and another who had a spare house to rent so I put them together and this bloke's been living there ten years now. But he's getting married in the autumn so he's moving in with the bird. I swear to god he has not cleaned that place once in all that time.

But now he has to leave it looking at least half decent when he leaves. I mean, Marco, if you think my place is a bit messy you have got no idea. This is unbelievable. It is going to take him a week full time to scratch the surface of it. And he isn't the worst I know by a long shot.

Me too, Sue drives me to distraction with her tardiness - she’ll make a cup of tea, a simple enough operation, but the mess! Cup cupboard door left open, spoon draw left open, lid of tea bag canister left off, tea bag and spoon left on the counter, milk left out of the fridge, wet “ring” from the cup not wiped up. Sometimes the fridge door left open. Apparently I’m “anal” for having a problem with any of this...
