Playing Safe leads to broken homes…
We came back from lunch with my dad to find the washing machine flashing. It had stopped at the end of the cycle and broken. Dan has had to prop it up and drain the water out, while on the phone to his mother who is upset because the dryer is only a year old. She was suggesting calling the repair man out.
I took Cassie upstairs to settle her for her afternoon nap when I heard a big chuckle of laughter come from downstairs. Dan came upstairs and said "Good thing we didn’t call the repair man, it would have been really embarrassing. You’ll never guess what’s broken the washer!"
A condom had got into the washing and had blocked the filter. I’ve told Dan time and time again about sticking his used condom on the dresser afterwards instead of in the bin and this time it had obviously fallen off and into the wash basket.
Dan with glee said "I told you condoms were a bad idea!"
Moral of the tale: buy Durex. It can block over 40 litres of water.
True Story.
-EDIT –
I’m quite amused by how many of you are grossed out by the idea of a used condom being put on a dresser. Dan and I usually have sex late at night and he’s inherently lazy. It is cleared off the dresser and into the bin by me the next morning.
oops 😉 i hope you didn’t share that story with dan’s mum! & oh my goodness, does you dad know? xx

That is true. It’s why durex is my trusted brand. Back when I was an ed and welfare officer we were taught about the testing standards. Mates are only tested to the minimum requirements & durex are tested to double that.

I’m not grossed out by the used condom. John puts snotty tissues and used ear buds on his side, lol! We don’t use condoms, but when we did, I think we just used to throw them on the floor for morning! You don’t always want to get out of bed, do you?

Ryn// it’s not as simple as just sticking with the nursing because it’s like me saying to Andy, “No you can’t have the career you want because I won’t move”. One of us has to make the compromise. If I could transfer, great, I definitely would, but if not, we would have to weigh up a lot of pros and cons. Not saying we would definitely move, but it would be an amazing opportunity for him. xx
