I was recently introduced with the concept of batchelorisation, which happens
when your prtner leaves you to go away for a few days. There doesn't seem to be a formal definition of this word, so this is my attempt
Steps to batchelorisation
- Dishes, cups and cutlery must be allowed to accumulate in the sink
- The remains of the takeaway (preferably curry) should be left on the kitchen table
- Clothes, when removed, should be left where they were taken off, magazines, papers etc strewn around the place
- Shoes should be kept on after muddy walks and wiped on ALL available carpet space
- Don't shave for entire period
- You may clean your teeth, but on no account should you rinse out the sink after doing so.
- When partner returns, greet said partner with a grunt and continue watching TV. ON NO ACCOUNT should you give any indication that you missed partner being around.
- After partner has settled in, cleared sink, cleaned bathroom, carpets and picked up clothes, you should ask what present they bought you from wherever they've been.
- Look hurt and surprised when partner throws plates/cutlery/sink/dog at you and walks out
- start again at 1.
