Done the ironing, washed the bedding this morning and put in in my airing cupboard and it was dry
so just put a load of clothes in the wash, if that goes in the airing cupboard that will be dry by the morning too

What is this ironing you speak of?
I gave our ironing board to a charity shop 3 years ago. Not missed it yet.

I'm sorry how can anybody not iron their clothes, to me if it's flat it needs ironing to get rid of all the creases, I iron everything, it takes very little time and looks and feels so much better.

Been a few years since I last used mine.

Being a foot taller than the delicious Mrs D we are a perfect fit for a spoony cuddle.

We are almost the same height (crucially I am half an inch taller - at least until heels come into play) so we swap big & little spoons.

We have nothing to iron really - all our T's etc are techy stuff as are fleece tops and outdoorsy trousers and they don't need ironing.

Going out stuff is usually no-iron material.

Once in a blue moon the ironing board comes down from the attic.

Our stuff isn't techy, I usually do a two hour ironing session once a week.

I have a lot of techy clothes too, but what about bedding, cotton shirts, undies, socks, handkerchiefs ect, don't tell me you don't iron them

I take it you’re joking! I live in leggings and technical t shirts, fitted sheet is stretched tight on the bed anyway and I have a cover less duvet.

Daughter No2 is allergic to ironing. Her usual retort, if questioned on the subject of ironing and creases is "I will fat it out"

Top sheet and bottom sheet for us I wouldn't want to be washing a duvet or a duvet cover once a week' I wear shirts and trousers most of the time and they need washing and ironing or I end up looking like a bag of s**t tied in the middle with string.
