I've noticed this amongst the husbands (in their late seventies) of some of my friends. I fear it is an age thing, an almost illogical and irrational stance that you cannot do anything about. I make our bread, my husband loves it and eats most of it but still goes out and buys Mothers Pride. Why? We are going out for lunch with friends today, he has had no cup of tea or toast as he has recently started to worry about needing the loo. Why? I explained the way the digestive system works and suggested that his roast lunch would trigger the need for the loo instead of the tea and wholewheat toast that would have sorted it earlier !😱. When I meet my friends for coffee everyone unloads about their husbands increasingly irritating little ways; we laugh affectionately about them but there is no doubt, at 80 the women I know are not ageing physically and mentally as quickly as our partners and GSM is right, we must do everything we can to enjoy our lives and try to keep them healthy as otherwise we are on the slippery slope.
