Aww, it's great that you're not arguing. Can DH make a habit of checking his pockets before putting stuff in the wash-bin? I've convinced Mr LW to do this, as with lupus brainfog I cannot be relied upon to remember - I've "laundered" a £5 note before now (came out OK and was subsequently spent) and also a piece of paper with what looked like the remains of an email address written on - that one we shall never know as it was all but illegible and Mr LW couldn't remember who gave it to him.:D
Well I dont wash anything thats not in the basket, and he swears he didnt put them in and that I must have picked them up from wherever they were and washed them...but I wouldnt have done that!!!January grocery challenge- £338.09/£350
