    My OH is very good at ironing - I make him do mine when I am there :D

    Mine never has been, he used to iron his pants by putting them under the matress and wasn't very good at that either ( think i fell for his little lost, look after me tactic):o
    he is good at ironing it just takes him 10 mins to decide how to do it

    Now i am totally jealous..two of you with OH's who can iron...:p pah!:rotfl:

    I trained my son though, but he is not very good with folding. At least he will go to someone fully trained, as he can cook and clean too.:D

    *makes note to check up on ironing skills* :rotfl:

    I don't iron anything unless I really have to either, I always take stuff out of the machine straight away and find most things are fine.. do wear smart-ish clothes for work but usually dresses or skirts and tops with a bit of stretch that don't desperately need to be ironed.

    Meant to say thanks to whoever mentioned the Nails Inc offer on here the other day - got three for £5 due to some creative address use ;)

    My OH doesn't iron, I'm the one who does it all. My ironing pile is currently a mountain, and growing by the day. Infact, all my OH does is go to work, and come home, no housework at all. I'm not working at the moment, so I think he just expects me to do it all, as I'm at home all day.
