I usually get the classy job of emptying the bucket - on our last trip I had a moan about it and he did make an effort!

I seem to do the washing up all the time time as well.....

Fact 1: men wash 50% of all dishes on campsites

Fact 2: men empty 100% of all toilets on campsites

All these guys doing the washing up!  I wish someone would tell my OH this as he probably only washes up 5% of the time when camping which is actually less than he does at home.

He does however like to poke the BBQ with a stick whilst barking orders Gordon Ramsay style ;)

My OH does most of the washing up at home as we have a rule that whoever cooks doesn't do the washing up...however, we recently decided that we should wash up by hand rather than using the dishwasher...to save water/electricity (there's only the 2 of us) However, he's taken to 'forgetting' about the soaking pans etc so i've endded up having to do it...I HATE washing up almost as much as the ironing! When we're camping, he tries to make me go as he cooks things...in a fashion..moves them round a pan more like..but he wont empty the bucket cos he wont use it! Grosses him out...apparently! He also thinks aqua rolls are full of raw sewage...keep trying to explain but he just doesn't get it!
