This reminds me of that Ricky Gervais Show podcast where they discuss how embarrassing it is to buy an ironing board because you have to carry it home and everyone can tell what it is because you can't put it in a bag, and then people know you didn't already have one.... and... I guess you had to be there...

I iron most of our clothes. I hate the thought of wearing jeans that just aren't soft - even with drier sheets they somehow seem hard. My husband and son think it's hilarious that I iron t.shirts that they just wear to work on the car or to go camping in. I just like the feel of clothes when they have been ironed. I iron all bedding too - I love the feel of clean, pressed sheets.

So, if you are mad, mags, then I am just totally off the scale!

Our journey started in 2001 and it's still not over. It's been a rollercoaster ride all the way! Let me off - I wanna be sick!

An iron will will never....ever...touch my clothes. Ever.

Do you wear wrinkled clothes to interviews?

Psssssttttt... I will tell you a secret: one can pay others to do the ironing.

This falls under the heading of "little luxuries in life".

:whistle:

Luxuries? I wouldn't know nothing about no luxuries, sir.

When I was growing up my Mum would pay me to do her ironing. All my Dad's work shirts and the sheets etc. She paid me £1.50 p/h. I used to do it in my bedroom. I'd charge her for about 4 hours work, one hour I would be ironing, the other three were spent lounging on my bed listening to music....

So I guess I WAS her luxury in life, albeit one that was ripping her off! :P

I see you were destined to land up in the United States, having already mastered the American style of doing business! :P

I iron some of my clothes if they need it. One really weird thing is I like to iron my sheets. It makes them smell really good for some reason. I don't know...maybe it's just me.

Another ironer here though I draw the line at undies. I also don't use the dryer and hang my washing out. Even if it's -15c and sunny they still get dry. I iron all of my clothes and the ole man does his own. He never owned an iron until he met me. Now he loves doing it. I taught him well. ;)

Met the ole man in January 1998

Eh, I iron if it's totally necessary, as in the dryer didn't get all the wrinkles out. ;)
