Someone at work today said they had got the time it takes to iron her husbands shirts to.... wait for it..... 7 minutes!!
Life is definitely too short for ironing!

(Not sure how the conversation got round to ironing, but, my fellow non-ironers, we are NOT alone!)

You IRONED swimming trunks!?!?!  :o

Have you seriously ever heard anybody at the swimming pool saying "just look at the wrinkles on his Speedos - you'd think he'd at least have ironed them first....."

Still, have a close look next time you singe something, and you could be famous, like this lady, who spotted the Messiah himself on the bottom of her iron!  ;D

WHAT!!!  I could do Sandy's shirts in 28 seconds each!
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

 if you hang stuff on a hanger in bathroom  when you have a shower . if wrinkly the wrinkles should drop out,
i only iron if i have too.then its only because theres nothing else i could wear instead.
hate ironing.
sheets are nice ironed though when you get in bed and nice ironed sheets.   ;D

I know Womble, I dodn't realise they were swim shorts until I melted them, I thought they were normal shorts!  They say love is blind!!

Yes, you think I'm joking... I don't actually iron unless theres absolutely no alternative. I loathe it, its such a waste of my valuable time.  (sorry, but there it is.  My late mother in law actually ironed socks and pants!)

I have the same feeling :). the iron lives on the shelf above the freezer and i leave it their
