    AAAAARRRRHHHHHH! How can you all bear to sleep on un-pressed sheets? That's the best thing about Friday nights, getting into a perfectly smooth freshly made bed and what on earth would I do on a Monday morning if I didn't have 5 beds worth of sheets, pillow cases and duvets covers to iron - get into all sorts of mischief that's wot!;)
    Life's a beach! Take your shoes off and feel the sand between your toes.
  • I throw them over the line and then secure with one peg.
  • Over the line with two (matching!) pegs.

    corners, peg in the middle.
    no ironing.
    clean sheets is enough fun for me ;)

    what about pegging out socks - you peg them at the top or the toe?
    and do you peg them singly or in pairs?
    I can never decide which is best.
    Decisions. Decisions.:rolleyes:

    I must say I do like to get into clean IRONED sheets. They only take a couple of seconds if they are dried by their corners (and a peg in the middle!) - the creases are mostly blown out. However, it's obviously all a matter of preference. Some people can find better things to do no doubt?

    As far as the socks are concerned I find it better to peg from the toe (individually). The moisture runs down to the thinnest part then and they dry in a much shorter time.

    I never used to iron sheets but now I've got an ironing press I just love wallowing in the luxury of freshly pressed white cotton sheets - and they only take seconds to iron
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!
