I assumed a "pink" job meant that when Orcs did the washing all the whites came out pink!
Pink jobs are the ones the ones that traditionally the lady of the house does.  Blue Jobs the Man.  So for clarification.

PS. The only time the whites came out Pink or Blue (we have had both) I was not even in the house.  So when I arrived home I kept my lips completely sealed,  Otherwise I would not be here now.  :)

However, if I take the middle row of seats out of the Sedona, put the back row down and pop a piece over board over them  :-\

Obviously I know how the seats in my car are removable, other members of the forum less so  ;)

(I know, even though it's fantasy  :o  ;)  )

So are we , I giver Mrs Orcs the opportunity to do the "Pink" jobs and she gives me the opportunity to do the "Blue" jobs.  An equal sharing of the load

Secondly I value my life so do not touch the laundry or Ironing.

I used to help with the ironing, until one day I could not iron the creases out of one of her tops.  I turned up the temperature and liberally used the steam and squirt functions. After some 10 minutes I had got rid of all the creases.   Mrs orcs then came into the room and I commented how hard the particular top had been only to be told "Its meant to have the creases in it".  No more ironing for me.
