My husband also shattered my illusions when I caught him washing the dishes and not rinsing them, the very first time in our home. My best friend, who was visiting us from Houston, put a stop to it by making gagging noises. Then I discovered his Gran, my MIL and my son's childminder didn't rinse either. That is why in most photos of our family gatherings, you see me in the kitchen with marigolds on!! Seriously!
As for the spigot, it didn't bother me, at all. What got me was that when we bought our first home in 1999, we had to pay extra for a shower in the main bathroom and an outside water tap. I did have a dishwasher (no excuse for not rinsing dishes now!) and a single garage though. However, the single garage did not exactly fit my Citroen Saxo. Okay, it did but I found out I couldn't get out of the car by opening the door. That model of Saxo had a fully retractable roof so guess how I got out of it, the first time?
