Dull Thread: New bale of towels

[Mich the Tester]

1. Next time your in a hotel complain that the towels are rubbish and ask for only brand new fresh towels.

2. keep them.

3. spend the money you would have spent on towels at the pub

Brand new towels are no good; they need at least 2, preferably 3 runs in the washing machine at 60 degrees, 90 for white, before they reach their optimal absorption level.

4. Explain to the nice policeman that it is all a misunderstanding and smile sheepishly.

I got a towel from Morrisons in '96 which survived 12 years of single man use and is now my wifes favourite towel

thank you for a great image

[Bagpuss]

fixed that one for you.

What is this you speak of?

[Masher]

At least it wasn't "A Tale of Bowels".

John Lewis towels are the best. I sometimes buy a load when I’m in the UK as I still haven’t found any better; wash them a couple of times before use just to soften the fabric and they’ll last for many more years than they remain fashionable. I’ve still got one that’s 25 years old and use it as a scruffy towel at the rugby club.

Snore zzzzz…

Don't panic. Things are bad, but pan-galactic hitch-hiking isn't the answer.

best ones i've found are the cheapo supermarket towels, they always seem to be more absorbant... probably because they haven't been treated to fluff them up and look prettier
