    Once a week. Sorry but once a month is just too long for me.

    We watched Kim and Aggie yesterday too. My dd who is 9 and very untidy was so horrified by that couple's house that she went and cleaned her bedroom from top to bottom (more or less) including hoovering under her bed. Result;)
  • I do my bedding weekly i just feel the need to,on the other hand my mum was lazy and i was lucky to have my bedding done twice a year!

    I do mine once a fortnight. Saying that we both shower before bed and every day I turn the bed down and have the windows open all day so I guess that helps.
    I always iron my bedding, I know not everyone does, but its one of my small pleasures to climb into a crisp clean bed.
    I simply do not have the time or energy to strip and iron 5 beds each week.

    I generally do mine once a fortnight, but this occasionally stretches to every three weeks if I'm busy / tired / just can't be bothered. :o
    Back after a very long break!

    Once a week, on Saturdays, so that Mr LW can tackle the duvet cover for me.

    We don't wear nightclothes, so I wouldn't like to leave it any longer.

    ETA we don't bother ironing bedlinen.

  • Every Thursday, or if I have spent a lot of time in bed, then every 3-4 days.
