My "friend" takes great delight in opening all the kitchen drawers when she visits my house. I use a similar system with the cooker knobs too but without the maths, because my maths doesn't extend beyond primary school level.coffeeaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576236372097012430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852928490680611174.post-16494337389733308352010-09-26T20:04:33.210+01:002010-09-26T20:04:33.210+01:00Sorry, had to delete last comment as it was just t...Sorry, had to delete last comment as it was just the first one repeated by mistake. <br /><br />I'm going now, before I convince myself that I need to count the words and divide them by eighteen or something equally baffling.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852928490680611174.post-55185417305997665072010-09-26T19:56:52.498+01:002010-09-26T19:56:52.498+01:00I was exhausted just reading about your bedtime &#...I was exhausted just reading about your bedtime 'routine' and was reminded of my own foibles. I like to check, and double, triple, etc. check the cooker knobs and do this by gently running my fingers along them to ensure they are all pointing in the appropriate direction. Each knob has to have the same amount of pressure applied and exactly the same amount of time spent on them.<br />There are six knobs. I have to stroke them four times. If it goes wrong for some reason, I can stroke them all again just once-no more, because to do so again would be six times and would make six knobs x six times =36. Six sixes are thirty six and everyone knows that sixes are the sign of the devil.<br />When my sons really want to mess with my head they wait until I'm on my way out of the kitchen and then touch a cooker knob.<br />The sods.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
