artist Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Does anybody else's wife/partner iron their underpants?Am I spoiling him? :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 We iron as little as possible, it's a complete waste of time in many cases. Our friend irons all the towels, and then screws them up wiping wet hands on them. All my shirts get 15 minutes in the tumble drier and are then hung up in the wardrobe. Our iron is not used for weeks on end. Why bother ironing underpants, they are out of sight when on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 We have a friend that irons everything that comes out of the washing machine - including underpants, socks, towels, face flannels. She even irons her husbands's jeans so that there is a knife-edge crease down the front.We, on the other hand, like andsome, iron almost nothing.

In order to pack things in tighter, I screw handkerchiefs and under pants etc into the corners of the suitcase. I couldn't care less what a customs official thinks, they should have better things to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Perhaps you should get him to wear them outside his trousers like superman ? Just so that everybody knows how conscientious you are in the fine art of making things flat.Bet she's made the top of his head flat at times, don't they all?

pwp Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Hi IMTNTwelcome to WF a face flannel is a small piece of towel about the size of a handkerchief used withsoap and water to wash your face and any other bits you might want to freshen up.
