Morning routines

[Misunderstood]

   Looks like I shouldn't complain too much about my routine....

[GROWLER]

Shortly after my post, I walked into the step out of my garage/office with no shoes on.
Smashed nails and what feels like bust toes too.

Just went to put a spare alloy wheel and tyre on the car I have knocking about to rid myself of the space saver, and THAT is punctured too ffs!
Now Growler jnr informs me he has a flat tyre on his bike, as does Mrs Growler on her bloody car.

Somebody bloody hates me today.
Nowt new there then I suppose.

Has someone been shooting at your tyres?

[GROWLER]

Has someone been shooting at your tyres?

No. Cross head screws in both tyres. No doubt the tyre depot will inform me that they cannot be repaired....as usual.

That'll be ?120 each please Mr Muggins, unless I opt for the cheap and nasties.

I am taking offence at this thread! I am NEVER late. Women that are were never trained properly by their Fathers. My Dad used to leave and lock the house up with us in it if we weren't in the car at the previously specified ETD. If you did not pay attention to the countdown to the ETA it was your own problem.

Bar Wench's morning routine.

6:30 alarm goes off. Mr Wench gets out of bed.
7:05 get in shower
7:15 out of shower
7:16 collect tea and clean clothes
7:20 clean teeth, brush hair
7:25 collect lunch, pack bag
7:30 leave house

I can do it in less than 15 mins if I absolutely have to. I shall also point out at this moment that Mr Wench takes longer in the shower than I do, takes longer to get ready, gets up half an hour before me and leaves the house half an hour later. We don't speak in the morning.

Set a new Happy personal best last week.

Working in reverse I was on the 8.24 train sorting the mullet in the lavvy, doing up my shirt buttons, and a quick squirt of deoderant.

8.23 and 30 secs arrived at the train station and hurtled down stairs bike in hand.

8.20 extreme risk flying accross roundabout on pedal bike.

8.15 began the 15 minute ride to the train station.

8.14 got dressed whilst walking down stairs, fortunately shoes at bottom were slip on.

8.13 got out of bath and half dried myself.

8.11 got in bath washed hair, pits and bits.

8.09 ran bath and got clothes from wadrobe.

8.08 woke up, checked clock, realised i'd overslept by about an hour and a half and realised i had 16 minutes to make it for the train.

Ah!  Someone else that doesn't get up at 06:00.  I was beginning to get a complex about it.

[Nick]

She has excelled herself this morning. I have a meeting in Manchester at 9.30. I got up at 7. Coffee, shower, and all set by 7.20.

Mrs Nick then announced that she had to be in at work very early and couldn't take him to school, so I would have to thus making myself late for my meeting

The faffing then commenced.

It is now 8.25.

She is in the shower. There is no way she will be out of the house before 9.30.
