Manky mates
My mate and his missus took their kids away for a week and I offered to feed the cat when they had gone, open the curtains, etc. etc.

I'd never really taken notice of their house before. Bit messy but with 2 kids it's understandable.

Fuck me - it was an absolute shithole when I turned up to feed their poor cat. Pans left on the stove with 2 week old food in them, plates and cups all over the house with varying degrees of food and half drunk brews in them. The high chair tray which their youngest used to feed from was disgusting and looked like it had never been cleaned. How the poor kid managed to stay healthy is something I'll never know.

The bin was overflowing and fags had been stubbed out on pretty much every carpet in the house. Dirty clothes left everywhere and the bathroom should have been quarantined it was that bad. Didn't look as thoguh anybody had taken a bath for years and the toilet had never ever been introduced to bleach (they didnt like the smell apparantly).

While I was popping in to feed the cat, my mate's Mum happened to be arriving at the same time one day with his little sister in tow. They knew how bad the house was and set aside 3 days to get it sorted. Amongst other things they told me they found were dirty shitty nappies shoved down the side of the cushions on the sofa.

So was my mate and his missus grateful on their return to his Mum? Not at all. Quote "it's our house and if we want to leave a shitty nappy down the side of the sofa, then we will do".

Not looking after yourself is bad enough, but when there are two of you with kids, its a fucking disgrace.

Mr W - if you are reading, I was too much of a wuss to tell you in person, but you and Miss B are dirty feckers.

Rant over

Cheers
