    Try putting them over the side of the bath, open the window and leave overnight, they should be dry by morning if not give them a quick iron
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones that let in the light

    yes my post is for real. I am only 22 and do not have ANY "real life experience"
    So i find this board really helpful in all the silly little things i feel that i should know already, but don't.

    I usually do my washing on my day off, but i am now working 2 jobs and working 7 days a week!!! With 1 pair of black trousers, and no days off, i was wondering if there was any quicker ways i didn't know about to make sure they are dry in time for work tomorrow!


    hey, I am sorry I was kidding around, did you see the post about clean knickers, that was a joke one!!

    You know seriously though when I went to school they taught all this.

    Hope you got it sorted :)

    Hey, thanks all! They were a little damp still this morning, but i ran the iron over them and they were fine :)

    Thanks for the help everyone, and yes the first day of the new job went well. Back in at 7 tomorrow morning though!!
    doing 28 hours in there this week, as well as 15 in Morrisons.

    And working 11 days straight!!

    Totally shattered though, just out the shower and i am gonna dry my hair and get into bed!

    No i never did see the post about clean pants...wish i had though!
    I only had home econimics in first year in school, which was 11 years ago!!! And all we did was sow a puppet together and make a sandwich, pasta and cakes in it!

    I'd go for ironing them. When I was your age and working for a supermarket I'd sometimes wear slightly damp trousers to work at 6am. :o They'd be dry by the time I got there though.

    It takes time to learn all the skills we need for adult life. I have lots of conversations with my older kids about subjects like this. Its good to have a place to ask anything! How about buying yourself another pair of trousers when you have been paid and a day off? I know Mr T does a cheap pair as I used to buy them for my work trousers. Lots of luck with your new job.
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
