I have never or will NEVER own an iron (or an ironing board, obviously). <br /><br />I ironed a boyfriend's shirt when I was fifteen and made such a pigs ear of it it was ruined. Thankfully I've never been asked again. I can't do anything with cuffs, collars or buttons. I can however do pillowcases and tea towels! Not that I do of course.<br /><br />Ruth OMG! I could do king size duvet covers! I hang mine out very carefully and they don't crease, ditto with washing - stick it straight on a hanger perfectly and it'll be fine. Anything else pop it down the dry cleaners. Job done.<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend. Hope to speak to you very soon. This week's been manic!

It has been this way now for six years so you'd think it would have run out of stickiness by now - but no. <br />Glad to hear someone is having a good day as mine sucks loudly on all counts. Might go and do some ironing to cheer up actually.<br />jxxxExmoorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09230395732150659356noreply@blogger.com
