It's something I do once a year before going on holiday so I look smart. Other than that we buy clothes that dont need ironing
I've even heard of people that iron their teatowels, socks, pants, hankies. Definitely bored
Yes, I heard that but surely it is a lie? If you stretch things out on the washing line then they don't look too bad or is it just that now I am ancient and the eye sight has deteriorated I don't see the creases?
Wise decision Wolfie, I too buy things that don't need ironing although sometimes that is a lie and they do; they then lurk in the back of the wardrobe unworn!
@Arab Horse Otherwise he sounds a lot like yours so you'd only gain ironing."It's something my husband does."
Please can we swop?
I sew and iron when needed although I am only allowed to use a travel iron, not my wife's supa-dupa model iron.
I am also house trained and certifiably insane ( according to my wife).
So how do you think the Mens' Day banner will look like? (probably have a sewn section saying "ironed by a lady" !
Ha ! Thank you @Arab Horse. Your offer is most tempting. Perhaps I need a mental fitness certificate to operate domestic devices (MFTODV) first. (I am sure for one nanny set of states, the Australian Government is working on such certification)If you come here I will let you use my super dooper mega expensive iron (although I confess to having bought it in a closing down sale so less than half price), only used a VERY few times. I would also allow you to use the vacuum cleaner and various other fantastic toys all in "nearly new" condition despite having had them for some time. The insanity I can tolerate. Reminds me of the old saying "All the world's mad except thee and me and even thee's a little odd".

****, you have discovered why I can't use said domestic appliances here in UK. Not sure if we have the same rules here in UK but being a law abiding citizen I won't risk it so said appliance stay safely in their boxes. However, the upside to it all is
1 my wrinkles pale into insignificance next to my clothes and
2 my great, great, great ,great grandchildren will have said appliances in pristine condition in their boxes, which I am told greatly increases the value of an antique, and may one day sell them for a vast sum of money.
