stick it in the tumble drier, it'll be fine.

Wrap it in a duster and put it on a warm radiator..........It sort of worked for mine when mrs jth sent it through a 30 min cycle.

If you've been making or receiving dirty calls/text messages, then it had to get cleaned.

I've been known to launder money before.

Try taking the battery out, wrapping it in kitchen towel, then bury it in a tub of uncooked rice and put it in a warm place.

Sara I'm much more inclined to flirt now that I know you're brunette. Between you and KarenMac I'm much less inclined to leave.

serves you right- left it in a pocket of something that you put in the wash didn't you?

So far ive washed Mr Boo's wallet three times (complete with contents -obviously) due to him not taking them out the pocket of his jeans, i refuse to apologise for it too.

Cowtipper

The wife washes my wallet every now and again. I don't mind much unless she hands it back to me wet.

Thanks for all the advice. I'll take heed of what you've said and add it to the comments uttered by Mrs McM.

At work we have washed a dried the same mobile phone 3 or 4 times and it still works fine. Of course it is a Nokia about 10 years old.

Ah a woman after my own heart, I've done passports and gold watches and keys! Oh and my old paper driving licence!

I absolutely hate checking dirty pockets, so I don't!

LoftyLottie

Men shouldn't be lazy and leave stuff in their pockets. How many men actually put their clothes in the laundry bin, let alone think of emptying pockets!!

mrs_overall

I don't mind a man who doesnt' check his pockets. If it is left in a pocket, then I claim it as my own.

Cowtipper. That's a crime - money laundering!

grasscarp

Mrs Overall, you just reminded me of years ago when my husband had a garage. I washed his overalls and there was often money in the pockets, which augmented my housekeeping!
