I'm the same Katek, the good intentions don't even get off the ground sometimes hmm

I do however find that a 40° wash with only whites and a scoop of so called oxyclean seems to do the trick (so far), also I use bio washing liquid.

Only other thing to do is buy coloured undies but I find beige nude still goes an odd colour after multiple washes, sort of a 'grunge' colour, not nice!

I bought myself two new bras at the weekend, same brand as usual, and put them in the drawer. I was then forced to throw out the washed out grey ones as they looked so grubby beside them, but this makes me feel guilty as functionally there's nothing wrong with them. I did think of the bra bank but I wouldn't want anyone to have my old grey things. I start out with every good intention, hand washing and not tumble drying, but then it all starts slipping (the intentions, not the bra!) and they end up flung in the machine with everything else.

I can hear my mother though, "what if you were knocked down?" I don't think the colour of my undies would be my priority if that were the case!
