It depresses me that one day my children will be at school and I'll have to iron school shirts . I frigging hate ironing! The other day DH took control of the ironing board, I ran round the house grabbing clothes from here, there and everywhere for him to do!

Send it over here and I will do it for you. It's not hard and can be done whilst talking or watching the box.

I'm with you Polly & Louise. I remember Mum trying to teach me how to iron when I was about 9 - never progressed beyond Dads hankies. Mr P does all ironing in our house. I love the smell of newly ironed clothes (obviously not enough to make me want to do it myself though!)

I change my ironing board cover probs about once a year (unless the fabric tears or summink).

I don't 'do an ironing' - never did get that I find it much easier to figure out what everyone is wearing the next day and they all get ironed that night before I go to bed and all hung nicely on the dining table chairs for everyone to grab hold of in the morning
