Washing machine rules

[DoctorStrangelove]

What is this "ironing" of which you speak?

[woohoo]

Your mother clearly spoilt you.

My brothers like my sisters are well versed in the art of washing and ironing.

In fact my sister-in-laws never wash my brothers' clothes, and as soon as their sons have reached 13 they are taught, like their daughters, to do it themselves.

Very sexist post. I do the bins and protect the house. I think most people would agree thats more than my fair share.

Dear deity, I just had a flashback to the days of starched collars.

I need my safe space.

Not to mention ironed tea towels.

And spitting on the smoothing iron to see if it was hot enough when it was taken from the open fire.

I'm afraid we have a modern washing machine that doesn't vibrate the house down.

Washing machines are like wives. You have to keep switching to a newer model.
