    not sure I would dare suggest Dallas has poor hygiene?
    You can procreate without sexual gratification? Weird!

    During midnightman 2012 I went to give Dallas a hug as I was leaving and she screamed "keep away from me I am minging". As if I was fresh after 14 hours of exercise. Or maybe she just thought I was a pervert.

        On the rare occasions that Mrs Albert is allowed to go away I have found that the best solution is to buy a load of new shirts. One for each day she is going to be away seems to work.

            If you want a serious answer:
            Set the wash cycle to the programme that most closely resembles the term " minimum iron" or " crease resist".
            Don't overload the machine
            Dry hanging up to "drop out" creases

            If you are lucky, no ironing/ minimum ironing

            if you want a frivolous answer (I'm too tired to work it out):
            Use a laundry service
            Do a Jason Statham and keep a stock of vacuum packed shirts at the ready
            Get an OCD bit on the side for chores

              Summary..women are biologically more suited to ironing.

              Mindlab International survey...
              Men: Excelled in tasks requiring spatial awareness (including map reading and changing tyres)
              Women: Excelled in tasks requiring speedy hand-to-eye coordination and verbal reasoning (including threading needles and ironing)

              National Geographic survey...
              Men: Hunters, greater sensitivity for fine detail and for rapidly moving stimuli. Prehistoric role: detect possible predators or prey from afar
              Women: Gatherers, better adapted to recognizing close-at-hand. Prehistoric role: static objects such as wild berries

                Men are anatomically more suited to ironing:
                • They haven't got boobs that get in the way (for the most part) !
                • They have longer arms
                • They have a stronger grip


                And for those of you who now imagine I have big boobs, short arms and a limp wrist................

                50% correct and no, we don't need a poll, thanks.

                    I am Chief Ironer in my household. It's a fair deal as I can watch rugby or cricket whilst doing it with no whinging from the rest of the household.

                    No ****er is allowed near my shirts even if Mrs. Damon gets to the ironing.
