Do you like doing housework?

[Olive]

I loathe most aspects of housework; I wasn't brought up being made to do it and consequently have no skills or even the ability to organise the necessary tools and products. I do carry out what is necessary (on a joint basis) but only because since we left Auckland it has been impossible to find a reliable cleaner.

I don't mind ironing - pillow cases, tea towels, tablecloths all get ironed while I listen to music - but that's the limit if my willingness.
