    in fact i used to buy work clothes that didnt need ironing - short sleeve light weight jumpers - wash on a wool programme hang them out/in (weather permitting) and hey presto no ironing - however him indoors has more clothes than a supermodel and wears to many clothes - more than me - or is it that his all need to be ironed. Anyhow i have gone on strike - i refuse to iron any more of his clothes until he starts to do some himself!!!
    I do that with Mr.B, its funny watching him iron:rotfl::rotfl: He hung one shirt up more creased than ones in the ironing basket..i was going to iron him a couple of shirts this week, but decided against it as practise makes perfect.:cool::D
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    I have to confess I don't iron anything, I deliberately choose clothes that will be fine unironed. And I like the gypsy look so a lot of it's the twist and dry do not iron kind of thing. And winter's fine cos woolly jumpers and cardi's don't need ironing anyway.

    Obviously not working and needing to look smart is a big help.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
