Reminds me of outnumbered- the episode where the parents argue about whether the knives should be put into the dishwasher head up or down. Made me laugh so much, we always have the same argument in our house too.

Knives up or down, a bit like the toilet roll leading edge in or out argument !

Don't think so, the toilet roll thing never bothered me. I'm happy for it just to be there.

But I can't understand why there is a debate about knives being down or up in the dishwasher. Always down - same with forks.

Knives & forks down, back left and right respectively. Big spoons front left, small spoons front right....joking!
 
In relation to knives in the dishwasher my view on it is based on safety what with having a toddler in the house. Knives and forks down mean that if she was to slip and fall at the dishwasher she is less likely to get stabbed / lose an eye also if she was to grab a knife from the dishwasher at least it would be handle first and not blade first
 

Wow you make your toddler empty and load the dishwasher - fair play!
 
I have no toddler but have almost fell on top of the dishwasher once or twice with the drawer opened - that's why I always put them downwards.

I have noticed that they might sometimes have watermarks (more to do with needing salt though) but I can live with that - sure it's still better than doing them by hand.

Spoons are always upwards though.
 
What is it with this irrational fear of falling on a dishwasher? Yourselves and my husband should form a club- a club for the irrational. I'd love to see the statistics on the chances of an injury from a dishwasher...

Pretty grim I'd say looking at.
 
Mrs Romulan used to put her hand on the supermarket trolly as I push it along behind her. A few hissy fits sorted that.

Either I'm driving it or I'm not.

That's what I like in a man - a commanding, forceful, dominant and dynamic personality . GO Romulan GO!
