I am seldom without an opinion. And it’s not one I often keep to myself.
Adorable hey?
I wanted to make a trip to visit some family and friends recently. Miraculously… I persuaded my lovely man to come with me. He loves his home, he loves me, he’d like to keep us together at all times, but mostly if a separation is required, he chooses to stay at home.
So… This was big.
I booked us a little BnB. It was lovely… Within 3 minutes, I established 3 things that were problematic.
I politely asked them to get their shit together already.
I reminded myself ‘nobody likes a lecture… Keep your mouth shut’.
My lovely man looked at my face and said ‘nobody likes a lecture, keep your mouth shut’.
I do love to lecture and nag… I couldn’t help myself.
‘Do you check everything is working before a new guest arrives?’, I gently enquired.
They do, we were informed, they just don’t check these things.
Shut it, my lovely man reminded me.
‘Do you think a check list would help, I asked, I can draw one up if you like.’
We are, not surprisingly, never allowed at the same place twice.
