Your DH sounds like mine!

He was telling me last night that when I am in hospital he will get his parents to stay in the house (not my favorite suggestion but whatever gets him through is fine - I won't be there) and he will pop in every night after work, "maybe for an hour or so" before he goes home to the dinner that he will get his Mum to cook!

I suggested that he may very well have other plans...not quite in those words...
