Seriously, I do most things in this house. But I absolutely REFUSE to iron anything. I am a hopeless impatient ironer. If anything needs ironing I get Mr BM to do it.
I've lost count of the times I've gone off for a shower to go to work and come down with something and said "darling" (flutters eyelashes) "would you be ever so sweet and iron this for me and then I might cook you something very nice for tea".
Because it's how I have been brung up! lol My Mum irons everything too and it's just how it always has been in our house. I can't explain why, it's just habit I guess.
I absolutely can't understand this either, mrs 0 - why would anyone iron socks or pants? why would anyone iron anything that doesn't need it? Ironing towels wrecks the bounciness. I admit to ironing teatowels otherwise they won't fit in the drawer, and pillowcases, but not much else. Why would you?
I LOVE it.... I used to iron everything. My kids clothes were the talk of the school.... Now neither of them iron anything.....Last time I went to my Daughters I plugged the iron in to iron the Kids school shirts. The light was flashing on and off so I took the plus to bits. I was horrified to see the earth wire wasn't connected. I spoke to the Daughter and said " You know you could have had a very nasty shock" she said "no I couldn't Mother, I've never used the iron since I've been here" The shame....2 years and no kids clothes ironed :o(
