Domestic Staff

[Doofus]

We all know the incredibly funny PH trope of "Doesn't your butler do that for you?" and other such hilarity, but in seriousness, does anyone here have full-time domestic staff?

Not necessarily live-in, but not a three-hours-per-week-gardener.

I'm not including carers because I know lots of people have carers and that's not what this is about.

I've done it as a poll so people can give anonymous answers if they wish.

Fun and laughter will no doubt ensue, but I'm interested.

[Monkeylegend]

I've got all of those.

[Collectingbrass]

You forgot the mumsnet bait of "Wife" and "Secretary"...

[B'stard Child]

Have you got space to edit and add the answer no?

[Doofus]

fk it, then.

Arsefaces.



It's taken me all bloody day to get the ability to create a poll, and you think it's all just a jolly good laugh.

I even predicted that you would.

well it's going to be a very one sided poll if only those with a "man" of some sort can vote @D

Well the rest of you could just STFU.

Happy now?

NB. I've never done a poll before, and it's not as easy as it looks. I don't have anyone to do it for me.

Why is it I can only choose one?

[Monkeylegend]

Sorry I meant to say I am all of those.

See my disclaimer above. You can select as many as you wish now.

It's already ruined, after all.

No it isn't but once you've done a couple you remember to do the subject "Question" line, tick the "Poll" box put in your options/choices and I little bit of text in the discussion bit

And never ever press "preview" as it wipes it all

Well that's what my other half thinks

Thread heading for legendary status IMHO.

[Zarco]

All of the above.

Don't upset him again

(there is no MX5 option either)

IT'S RIGHT THERE!

Please can a sympathetic mod remove my Poll permission.

[Voldemort]

Do I tick 'Driver' to cover the helicopter pilot?
