Ladies, who should we send?

[justleesa]

How good a cook is he and does he clean up after himself on the same day?

Can he do laundry correctly

 

[justleesa]

Does he buy presents in advance so he has them for the day and is the gift thoughtful - can the gift-ie actually use it?

Gifts don't have to be useful (unless it's dive gear), merely fun.

 

[justleesa]

maybe I didn't make that clear....it should be something that is actually bought or made with the gift-ie in mind and given on the correct day (not three days, or more, late)....not a last minute, all they had left, you might like it - if not go and exchange it and next time buy your own it kinda gift.

If we do it soon the water is warmer but vis is not great.
We could wait till Dec/Jan. The water will have its nice winter temp about then.
How does 46 degrees sound??


I will start working on a list of skills that will be tested.
Ladies ~ Let me know what you want tested.

I've done a couple of dive for almost an hour in water temps close to that. While it's not a preference, it is manageable.

I'd like to preview that list myself!

*** EDIT *** I responded to this before I read on to the lists starting on the next page.

I can do okay if the need arises. Same day cleanup will have a lot to do with what's on the menu. If it's a romantic dinner, then cleanup may be deferred til sometime later, so as to not interrupt the "flow" of the evening.

Can he do laundry correctly

Well, I dont have a lot of experience with laundering *ahem* delicates and that's something you prolly wouldn't want me experimenting with.

Yes.

Actually I'm pretty good at that. My gifts are usually thoughtful and unique for the recipient, even if it's something I picked up at the last minute. The only time a gift may be late is in the event I just don't see them, it's never an issue of not having it

Here's a tip, read the tag and follow the instructions. When in doubt "hand wash with Woolite, roll in a towel to absorb excess moisture (do not wring) and lay flat to dry". Can you do the laundry without changing the color of any article of clothing? If any of your white socks are pink thanks to a pair of red shorts the answer is "no"

At least you're getting a chance to study! Pick up a copy of "The Joy of Cooking" and head to the laundromat to watch women do laundry

Anytime I've been close enough to read the tag, following the instructions printed there was not prominent on my mind.

 

[Diver Dennis]

They have instructions?
