Never had more interaction on a post ever than that ironing one. Bit scared of some of the answers tbqhwy. I like an ironed quilt cover. Silk pillowcases. I’m clearly in the minority.

Imagine waiting for your husband, brother or son to return from 24mths as a hostage tomorrow. I doubt anyone in Israel will go to work, they’ll be glued to the TV. What a day.

I used to send it out! It’s soooooo time consuming.

My mam ironed bras!

Stuff does dry outside if you pick your days & have a load of gear (see gym kit) but yes, I’ve a clothes horse & a real fire for the darkest of weeks. I love stuff dried in front of fire. Makes me feel like a child again coz mam used to do it.

Ha! Glad you admitted to that.

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 19h

It worked didn’t it! Haha!

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 19h

Jeez I had no idea it was so subservient to iron!

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 19h

TUMBLE!

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 19h

Ahh see I won’t dumble dry. Don’t like the end result. Washing goes on line.

Although I agree about the gulag bit, I also disagree. I have bamboo & silk bedlinen & honestly believe I’d sleep worse if not ironed. Body heat ain’t sorting that.

Animal….

People who don’t iron (including my siblings) …how? How are jeans un crumpled? My quilt cover? I loathe it & used to send it out but then Covid happened & her & the cleaner went & just never got back into the groove. So how do you not iron?

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 20h

Haha! Well done!

Yanny @yanny.bsky.social · 20h

Never was for me. Never.

I am ironing. I’d rather clean the loos in a betting shop. And there’s been a tissue in the wash…..

Me but instead of the words ‘to write’ insert handbags.

No regrets.

Who wakes on a Sunday & thinks a great way to spend their day is to go & queue to get in the new small Ikea? Absolute dunces. Bet the lads in there are the type that put flags up. & no Karen, I haven’t done a survey.
