    Comment

        Just discovered that the mp3 rip of Comfortably Numb I made in 2007 doesn't suffer from the same bitrot as the 2011 version.

        I wonder why.

          I cook it in a glass dish.

          That way you can see how it's progressing.

          Goes in at the same time as the meat.

          Coz the portions are now so small, I find it difficult to time the way I used to when I was cooking for 3.

          Ho hum.

              I've got a Klan meeting on Wednesday and they're quite particuar.

              Oh, alright then:
              Shirts *5 - It's my one concession to professionalism.
              t-shirts *5 - They will be given a cursory going over.
              Trousers *3 - same shirt rationale.
              2 Kids school uniforms *1 - that's just a matter of principle, they wouldn't notice.

              Is that lot acceptable?

              ZeitMater used to iron socks, towels, sheets, pillowcases, underwear, face flannels as well.

              I sometimes think she'd have ironed the cat if it had stayed still long enough.

              And I still can't do the hospital corners on the bedding that she used to achieve.

              Ho hum.

                  Sounds familiar - I recall the 'why are you moaning about all the ironing and yet ironing twice as much stuff as you need to' point I foolishly made once upon a time. I should have said 'Oooh, I know. It's terrible isn't it'. Lesson learnt

                      I iron shirts, that's all. Everything else gets hung up after it's been washed and that's good enough for most things.
