Edinburgh's Double Tree by Hilton hotel has dubbed its concept The Groom Academy, and teaches hapless fiancés how to hone their skills at ironing, bed-making, cooking and even cocktail making. 
 
Jennifer Hutchinson, 28, from Falkirk, may already have agreed to marry Nick Hogarth, her boyfriend of eight years, but still felt he was in dire need of a crash course in general housekeeping. 
 
She said: 'Nick has always put football, Playstation, work and his mates before me and he's awful with dates! 
 
'He never helps with the washing up, never tidies up after himself and his time management is awful. He's got tons of bad habits and I've still not got it through to him that leaving the toilet seat up just isn't on. 
 
'Sometimes I feel more like his mother than his fiancée, so I decided I'd had enough, it was time for the Groom Academy.' 
 
From her point of view, at least, it was a resounding success. 
 
'It was great fun,' she said. 'Nick clearly learned a lot and he's definitely more aware of cleaning up after himself.' 
 
'I normally have to iron his shirts but hopefully he'll be able to do that for himself now. It was great fun seeing him learning the things I've had to do for him for year. 
 
'He looked quite confused a lot of the time but now he's got all the skills he needs to be a great husband.'
