    My clothes are ironed on a Sunday and packed. They are hung up on arrival at the hotel and if the creases fall out, then they fall out. If they don't, then they don't.
    I find people want me for my expertise and are not offended by my 'bag lady chic'
    WSS except I don't even bother hanging them up. During winter, spring and early summer I just wear jumpers (ranging in thickness) or shorts with no collars and summer tends to be short sleeved cotton or linen shirts which already look crimpled. Trousers are no problem as I wear black Levi 501s all the time. Been living in the same hotel with the same carry-on bag for nearly 3 years now and 2.5 years before that in a different hotel, no problems. I used to have a travel iron but never used it and most hotels here let you borrow one of have a room set up with one if you really need to (although if I find that a shirt looks too creased or I forgot to pack enough I just go and buy another one after work.)

    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
