loulou, learn to cook, its easier, its cheaper and you get what you want. Microwave crap doesn't fill you up.

Seriously, there is nothing easier than a spag bol or a pasta bake, I would even talk you through it.

Lou, I bet your own well-scrubbed wooden spoon is much cleaner and germ-free than your average take-away. Ask Knighty!

Ive heard lots of horror stories about takeaways. They drop stuff on
the floor and then just put it back on the plate, etc.

Also, if you do it yourself you get exactly what you want.

I have my darling Dorota.

My nan's home help is called Dorothea, are you that infirm?

phyllisbermann · « **Reply #21 on:** July 28, 2006, 10:46:58 am »

She's a maid not a "home help"

maid/home help same thing, different label

What century are you living in! This is someone who was, only the other day, saying the poor should be more careful with their money!

This is slightly awful. But I have a friend who's granny is very old and was brought up in South Africa, even to this day she thinks anyone black is here to serve her and will even speak to them in orders in the shops such as ''get that down from that shelf for me, now''

Its awful, but slightly funny aswell to watch her act so outdated.

The poor should indeed be more careful with their money. Then they would not be poor.

As for maids, they're hardly an expense - one can get a good one for Â£7 per hour here in London.

Maybe the poor didn't have any money to look after in the first place. It is entierly possible they are poor for life.

Personally I wouldn't want a maid, I can wipe my own botty!

The only people i know with maids are the Royals and high class call girls.

Is a cleaner a maid, or is the difference that you use a bell to summon a maid to you for assistance?

phyllisbermann · « **Reply #29 on:** July 28, 2006, 12:18:19 pm »

Using a bell would be deemed rude.

A maid cleans but also does other tasks such as ironing, etc.
