Description: It was just a squashed grape on the kicthen floor. Hardly a reason to get upset, right? But six years of motherhood have left Lisa Stratton feeling like a skivvy. Every monring before she's opened her eyes, she starts her mental inventory of jobs to do. And just like every day since she became a mum, she's woken up knackered. So when her husband deliberately steps over the grape because it's 'her responsibility' to run the house, it tips her over the edge. He wasn't always like this - they used to share everything. Then the kids came along and saw it as an excuse to sit back. But this time things are going to change. Lisa has made a decision. She's going on strike ...
