    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.

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

    It's clear there are no rules to the washing machine light and dark wash. My guess, it's another strange thing women do to stop men helping out around the house, just so they can have a moan to each other on mumsnet.
