    Sod the ironing...have you considered Sammy whether you working those 3 hours and getting paid and paying someone to do your ironing would be more cost effective?

    Swap you a roast dinner for a cup a soup (yak) ;) lol

    I have Sally...:rotfl:


    It isn't normally this bad, but given I was 'under the weather' its piled up a bit.

    I don't mind....gives me a break from figures and I am watching a film at the same time...:T and I have a steam generator so it whizzes through stuff...

    Steam generator..am I missing a gadget that cuts the time spent irnoning :eek:
    I used to do ironing for a family..in fact It was when I worked from home for another company and I used to sneakily do the ironing in their time. Obviously there were plenty of times when I was working outside of my hours so made up for it I guess.

    Well paid little earner that was, shame there are so many people around here already offering ironing
