Happy that's gorgeous it's a proper "sleigh" bed

Bed Linen Quiz :T

• A Housewife pillowcase is?

• An Oxford pillowcase is?

• And a French pillowcase?

• A bed set usually comprises of which items?

• What is a bolster?

• The difference between a sheet valance & a bed valance?

• Why do bedspreads have a large flap over piece attached?

• The difference between Sateen & Satin?

• Why is satin bed linen a bad idea?

Not bad! I got 9/10 in 37 seconds, but got the Baseball question wrong, as usual. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

:eek: Theres only me here but i wash more than once a week. Three washes on friday. How often do you change your bedding and wash your towels ? Hate to ask how often your clothes get washed Or shouldn't i ask :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:;)

Once every 3 months for the bedding. One month I sleep on one side, next month in the middle, month after that the other side.:beer:

Towels and clothes as and when, generally once a month. I'm never in my outdoor clothes long enough to get them dirty and my lazy clothes are just that, lazy clothes but they rarely get to the point of being smelly.

Happy, am oddly disturbed to see we appear to have the same bed, :rotfl: though our taste in bed linen seems somewhat different. There, I suspect my tastes are rather more in keeping with your mummy's.

Really really like your sleigh bed HC :T

Thanks. I was down to my last X amount of an inheritance and my old double bed was creaking and groaning with age so much it woke me and my neighbours up:rotfl::rotfl:so I splashed out (£1,400) on a nice bed.:beer:

Happy as your cyber mummy and special advisor;)I am going to advise you that washing your sheets every 3 months is not enough!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:You should do them every week, but how about you start with once a month;) :pI'll let you off ironing them, but it only takes 5 minutes to bung them in the machine, How many duvet covers have you got?
