    Afternoon ladies :j


    Tag I am so glad that someone else has an obsession with pegs - I have to have mine all the same colour when pegged on clothes outside. I even bought a pink whirly gig to match my pink pegs :) And when I peg outside I have to have the same shade of pink on each side of the line too. DH went to help me peg out the other day and handed me a different shade of peg and he then decided I was totally weird as I went into a rant about how it had to be the same shade and how it through the whole look of the line out.. Now I know why I have to take my medications..lol

    I have also found I am doing the same on the airer indoors now. We have just bought ourselves a continental airer and I peg the clothes on the airer like I would on a line outside - now that is sad!!!

    Please tell me I am not the only one that pegs her washing onto an airer instead of folding it over..

    Oh No not another one !!!!!!omg.gifomg.gif

  • *groans* I'm totally drained now. I felt fine, did loads as previously listed, but have gone into total slump. :(

    Right, given that I've been proper poorly, and have only just started to recognise myself as human again, I'm going to call it quits for the day. I've done loads, so I'm not even going to feel bad. :p Sofa and star trek beckons!

    ... and it's only Monday... you know they get worse through the week... especially when Valli's not at work.

    Do you think we can find them some specialist support? Or should we encourage them to start a whole new thread where they can talk about their problems without freaking everyone else out?!

    Hope you recover soon toots!

    Nope don't iron dusters, mainly because they get boiled in the wash and I straighten them out while drying so they are all nice and crease free when dry :) But I do iron teatowels, mainly because I read somewhere that it raises the pile or something like that, and it has just stuck with me..lol
