ROFL Emily. I guess the towel is heat sensitive is it and disappears when the hot iron gets on it. LOL
Now what would be really useful is a similar one with a girl on it - to get all those reluctant male ironers motivated!

ROFL!! this had made me really laugh, I was expecting some great tips on horsey stuff etc! My ironing pile is HUGE! I can spend 3 hours ironing and it still doesnt make a dent, far too many clothes I think is the problem. I have to iron, theres been times my kids have gone to school with creased shirts, oh the shame!

LOL Zelda, even the 'non iron' shirts and trousers need ironing!! I think its because I should smooth them out after they come out of the washer, I just chuck em on the line, radiators etc. Karen said she smooths hers out and hangs them to dry so maybe I should give it a go.

What spin speed is your washer Bev as the faster it spins the more creased the clothes, if you can reduce the spin speed and give them a good shake/flick you might not need to iron ;D ;D

Oh I didnt think of that Zelda! It is quite a fast one and I wash most things on 60, well the kids and Oz's. I used to think it was because I was overloading it but I do small washes now. Thanks for that Ill try it! Haha, dont we talk about some interesting things! Have I just killed a funny thread?

You are all completely mad!!!! ROFL For the record, I do iron my work clothes but nothing else. Rick does all his own ironing too and sometimes even does mine (are you all green with envy now???) Oh yes, and he does all the cooking too

Rick is an absolute star! Dave does his shirts but doesn't know one end of a cooker from the other! He can tend a BBQ though ;D
I get away with hardly ironing anything, as my washer has a 'reduced ironing' button (basically it doesn't spin as fast). Also when I hang them up I smooth them out beforehand like Karen, and when they come in I fold them up neatly.
Some items do still need ironing but not many and this has always worked well for me!

Dave is a dab hand with the BBQ Gill - and he has so many other wonderful qualities which must more than compensate for lack of cooking skills..... ;-)
