It would appear my beloved has an extensive man drawer, and by the sounds of it, he can't quite find what he's looking for!

Do you have a man drawer and how organised is it? (obviously for men and women!)

I have several - all full of random crap - but I more or less know where to look when I need something.

Man drawer's can't be organized no matter how hard you try there's always that spare fuse that decides to leg it under the paperwork as soon as you need it so that you have to rifle through the whole contents making it a complete mess. It's the law of Man Drawer Physics

Haha, I just got the "look". It would be apparent that he is rather fond of his man drawer and commenting upon the fact that he couldn't find rall plugs isn't the done thing!!

In my defence it was my toolbox that I keep in the dining room. I had noticed that one of the curtain hooks in the lounge looked a bit loose and required re-plugging.

I didn't find my plugs but I did have the opportunity to use Swarfega to wash my hands with!

Ruby, leave his garage alone. Change things very gradually and he won't notice. By then you won't need to do the garage because he will have done it himself.

I have two man sheds,

One is small, and has stuff in it that Jayne might need to use.

And the other is full with tools, generator, gas bottles, electrical equipment and boxes of stuff that outgrew my man draw!

Ooo. I don't have a generator in mine, could be a worthwhile purchase although I need a new mig welder first...

Haha I'm not sure any woman has ever been allowed to step into the garage, there's definitely at least a couple of skateboards, a broken kettle and a tip run in there....

It must need a large drawer to keep a man in but I suppose it's useful for those times when you need one, like for mowing the lawn and putting the bins out. Are these drawers supposed to hold just one man or should they be large enough for a selection?

I suppose mortuary style with pull out shelves would be easiest.

Of course! it has an assortment of batteries and some bits of string and lot of other stuff that needs to exist but doesn't qualify for a place of it's own, bit like men really

That would be handy. The box room isn't large but I think I could get five in there.

If there are any jumbled wires involved, it is called 'snottery'. My ex had drawers and drawers of the stuff in all kinds of locations!!

Noooooooo sorry but that would be sacrilegious... Xx when I get a garage again it will be my solace from the world... But then I need something nice to put in it too. .

I have a bits and bobs drawer. I know whatever is in there I may need eventually

Yes and it's not organized at all. Just chuck odd stuff in. At least I know where stuff might be.

Man drawer full of fuse wire, fuses, glue, screwdrivers, plugs , assorted crap.

Man cupboard full of light bulbs, bike cleaning implements and spares, car cleaning and polishing stuff.

Man shed full of tools and workshop gear, the purpose of many of which has long since been forgotten in the mists of time. But you never know when they might be rediscovered.

Fuck I'm manly. Is it any wonder I wear dresses in my spare time.
