Who REALLY separates their undies from towels in the wash Hmm am I and everyone I know grubby ?! I feel this is a waste of water, electricity, time and money!

(Video is Lynsey on This Morning telling us we should make sure our bras are clipped together and separate them from towels before we wash) I wanna know how she has the time.

Why Mrs Tassels, what difference a bit of piss makes to a place! Just how do you get all the surfaces so sticky?

YoTheGinPussy · 25/07/2019 18:53

Why Mrs Tassels my hovel smells like a new hovel after your ministrations. I am eternally grateful. Thank you also for the lovely free gift. The bottle of concentrated piss with diffuser sticks is in pride of place in my kitchen.

S'orright! Anyway I've gone 5 minutes over so bill for an extra day will be in your inbox by the time I get home to do me own!

Same time next week? 🚬

Wombleish · 25/07/2019 19:06

I'm so jealous, Yo, I didn't get a piss diffuser, just a tiny travel sized poo crumb brush Sad

I wash tea towels separately, def not with underwear

ThighsRelief · 27/07/2019 00:41

I wash my underwear with my tea towels, it really helps me out. I'm a busy lady.

DanglyWhoreTassels · 31/07/2019 18:41

I always do my wash on a high temperature!

I literally never forget to add poo crumbs to my wash for that bit 'extra'

ThighsRelief · 01/08/2019 07:25

DT but I'm a busy lady, i have no time to source poo.

Wombleish · 01/08/2019 16:06

Poo directly into the drum, Thigh?

DanglyWhoreTassels · 01/08/2019 18:47

Thigh check inside your discarded pizza boxes for a poo surprise!

HairyDogsInUnusualPlaces · 01/08/2019 19:05

I've plumbed my toilet into the washing machine to save water

DanglyWhoreTassels · 01/08/2019 19:21

Dog I use my toilet as a washing machine! I simply add some Daz and load with my tea towels and flush! As if by magic, lovely, fresh teatowels at the ready!

Wombleish · 01/08/2019 19:26

DT, you are a genius!

DanglyWhoreTassels · 01/08/2019 19:29

Womble I was rather proud of my 'blue skies thinking' on this one!

SlocombePooter · 01/08/2019 19:49

Dangly please patent this before Dyson "thinks of it" !

DanglyWhoreTassels · 01/08/2019 19:59

Caroline I will

I shall call the innovation Poowash ®™

SlocombePooter · 01/08/2019 20:01

You'll clean up! Don't forget your pals.

DanglyWhoreTassels · 01/08/2019 20:15

All fundz raised to be directed to Cuntington Castle, our humble abode!

ThighsRelief · 02/08/2019 08:57

Do we drink a Daz solution to efficienize the process?

thislovelylidowithaview · 02/08/2019 10:00

Maybe that’s the route to the fabled White Poo.

foxtiger · 02/08/2019 11:50

Sorry not to have R(the whole of)TFT but it's huge!

As long as you're using washing powder, I think this is a non-issue.

Lweji · 02/08/2019 12:54

But... poo crumbs.
It's like homeopathy. You shake the water in the machine too much and it acquires a memory of the poo crumbs. From then on everything is contaminated with poo crumbs and you might as well throw them all away.

Lweji · 02/08/2019 12:55

On a side note, homeopathy is exactly like poo crumbs.

ThighsRelief · 03/08/2019 00:38

Maybe my arse is a washing machine Hmm

StarlightLady · 03/08/2019 05:48

I really don’t think my tea towels will do my knickers any harm!!! And as someone pointed out earlier tea towels probably have more bacteria on them anyway.
