Ironing !!

[Marge]

We're off to a wedding tomorrow and him indoors needs a shirt ironing. He's pecking my head to iron it for him as I do it so well however I think he's big enough now to iron his own

Who should iron it, answers on a postcard or vote on the poll please

[EBO48]

He Should

[punky]

They are your friends dear. I ain't bothered

[Mal]

Him, of course.

I've done my own ironing since high school...

[Mr_love_monkey]

Surely it's a case of sharing the duties? - if you iron he should do the washing?

[Wicked_and_Crazy]

Marge, he's bigging you up. He does a better job than you but he wants you to think you do the better job Well you have to be good at something and its certainly not driving

I rarely wear shirts, and if I do my lovely wife irons them for me. I didn't even have an iron in the house before she moved in. Whenever I needed a shirt ironing I dropped it off at a local shop who ironed it for me for about £1.20. Saved me the hassle of buying and storing an iron and ironing board as well

Marge: Iron it for him, and demand payment in kind. Everybody happy

Like I said: Everybody happy

[Hugh]

He should.

Everyone in our house does their own ironing (teenagers included).

I'll let you know shortly how things are going, Mr Marge is making washing-up noises from the kitchen (loud enough for me to hear so I know he's doing it) so it may be a compromise.

He can wash and iron and I'll not nag him for the next half hour

Why? If I only need a shirt ironing twice a year? Sound economics if you ask me. I could do that for 15 years and still save money compared to the cost of an iron and board. Plus, I don't have to own a clumsy ironing board that just takes up space.

So you don't iron anything else, like trousers, curtains, bed clothes, etc?
