Such a slob

I think you meant such a slog. Was imagining you were complaining about your OH 😆

Would it help to put it over a banister if you have one? - though it still might take a while to dry out

If you want to wash it, spin dry it, fold it and hang it over or on a radiator.

Or iron it dry! And that will be a slog.

I am happy being a slob for a week, don’t suppose it will make us ill 😃

Strangely as he has got older he is more fussy and now I leave things like the grill pan, or mucky saucepans for him to clean.

my tumble dryer died the week before we were due to move house. We decided not to replace the tumble dryer as we felt we could be more eco friendly etc
this resolution lasted less than a week I just could not cope!

If you have a couple of dining chairs that are not covered in fabric you could arrange the chairs so that you can hang it over both, we have done this before.

Go to a launderette.

The ironing board works quite well but need it to dry the sheet and pillow cases - rarely used for ironing! Good news is that the thaw has started and I might be able to find the washing line 🤣🤣

I’d do the same Tizliz but I’ve never had a tumble dryer.

I remember being surprised when I read this in a magazine….

I have never owned a tumble dryer, but if I cannot hang clothes outside, I use the 3 clothes dryers I have, and the heat from the house takes over.

Not sure where there is one but it will be at least 40 minutes drive - I live in the Highlands.

Some time ago I was seduced into buying a rather large, allegedly "fold-away" clothes-airer. All-singing, all-dancing, with racks that pull out and retractable sticks on the top to hook clothes-hangers on... Turned out to be a real white elephant, as it's too big to use indoors and too lightweight to put outside (the slightest breeze sends it toppling over). It stands in the garage like some monstrous sci-fi guardian of the dark. But it DOES come in handy when I have a really big item to dry. Cheaper than a tumble-dryer too.

Why? She changes them too seldom? Or too often?

All depends how dirty the sleeper is doesn’t it? Pull duvet back and fling windows open every morning -the time it takes to visit the bathroom and get the kettle on can be enough.
Sometimes changing pillowcases is good enough.
.."?..And keeping pets of the bed, …not eating a flake in bed.

I change the beds every week but have been known to go a fortnight when unwell etc.

I would change them every day if I slept naked.

Heavens not changing your bedding for an extra week or more is not going to kill you. I doubt if you do hard manual work and I expect you bath and have clean jim jams!!

Sound advice!

I sleep alone, no pets (my cat sleeps with my daughter, not me!)

I used to wash the bedding weekly but nowadays I do it fortnightly in summer and every 3 weeks in the winter months.

No tumbledryer.

Do you hire him out? Willing to pay!

Why do washing on a bad day?

I use a stand alone 6ft contraption, loosely called a dryer, with 3 levels and spae
