Nope. She has done similar to those times in the past, before the kids though. Will ask for more accurate timings once I've finished in the bath and put these candles out.

Not in my world so it would seem.Come on mate it’s 2024 not 1934
Behold 2024, the year men stop at home watching the bairns / have a meaningless job answering the phone whilst the women are going out and being the bread winners.
I prefer it in 1934, with rickets and polio . Life’s much simpler.
I knar a lad who has bath bombs in his bath
He’ll be breaking his kneck to drop the bairn off at school when it’s old enough .

I don't stop home to watch the bairns. Nor do I answer phones. I'm also the bread winner
Mind I'd be delighted to stop at home and be a kept man. Not going to happen though

If you travelled back to 1934 and told the fellas you weren't going out for a Sunday drink to keep ya head right they'd crucify you.

Bubbles and a glass of wine does me. Right there's away. Going to see if the wife has sorted the broken door handle I asked her to look at (she was putting a shelf up in the spare room when I got in the tub).

This is the way things are nowadays. No such thing as gender roles anymore and rightly so.

Any bloke could sup 8 pints of that and be champion on a Monday morning.

Maybe you’re just not man enough to drink proper lager? Bet your lass drinks stronger stiff than that shite then gives you a fireman’s lift up the stairs and puts you to bed after a night out.

We had a sling, which is more of a rucksack type thing than a papoose, which I think is more of a wrap around. But yes.
When your kids a babies it is really hard to find that small amount of time for the simple things, so with my daughter from perhaps just two weeks old, I’d strap her in the sling early each morning and take her with me when I walked the dog. That progressed to her doing a little bit of walking and meeting various dogs. She grew up loving the outdoors, nature and dogs.

That is where your whole prejudice breaks down. You can have a meaningful job AND work from home.Not in my world so it would seem.
