to want to redo it or am I too fussy

[advance01]

Dh has put some washing on whilst I was in hospital. All good. However, have just unloaded it to find pants,socks, towels, tea towels and ordinary clothes have been washed together.AIBU to want to rewash the towels and teatowels.

Why? YABU!

What?

Why?!

Yes, surely you have something better to do than wash stuff that's just been washed.

Too fussy imo, but I am a slattern

Yes yabu. And a bit odd.

Why would you do that?

Why????

Tea towels I could just about understand but why not towels with other clothes?

I would . I am very fussy about laundry.

Why? It's clean. We always have random things mixed together in our washing

Why on earth would it matter? [puzzled]

Why??

Waste of time, waste of electricity, waste of water, waste of detergent etc.

I do this all the time.

Apparently its to do with colours and different materials....

I'd leave it this time but educate your OH. I never wash towels or sheets with clothes as they go on a 95 rather than a 40.

I wash towels separately at 60 but I would probably let this go

YABU and mad... why on earth would it matter if things were mixed together. I woud not waste detergent and electricity on washing things separately. It all gets bunged in together here.. underwear, socks, tshirts, towels and tea towels.

YA completely bonkers. The towels absorbancy unlikely to be impacted much by a single wash with fabric softener so washing it out won't make a jot of difference. If you have any other reason than that YA even more completely bonkers.

YABU, though I like to wash towels together... not with any other items other than perhaps linen.

It's like ironing socks and pants......why would you! :)

YABU but I am one of these people who washes everything together, mixed colours, mixed fabrics and never have any problems.

Oh God, I would rewash them and now I've just read all the YABUs!

silverbells it matters because unless the temperature was high enough the bum germs wouldn't be killed and would also be transferred onto the towels.

YABU, how on earth do you normally do your washing?

Stark raving bonkers.

but Folk all the bug germs would go on the clothes too by that logic
