How often do you wash your towels?

I wash mine after two goes and I regularly bleach... husband thinks I'm mental? AIBU??

I've been paying my garden squirrel to lick me clean then dry me with his tail.

We're mortal enemies and locked in this never ending cycle.

astralplaning · 31/08/2019 05:54

My pubes are so wild and abundant DP mistook me for his shower puff the other day and i found myself being rubbed vigorously up and down his filthy arse crack.

You guys are cracking me up Grin

Each towel is used for 3/4 days to dry (our bodies) after a daily wash and is then washed. If we have used towels for something else then the towel is washed after use (swimming for example).

expatinspain · 31/08/2019 07:22

Once a week, same as the bedsheets.

boomboom1234 · 31/08/2019 08:24

Less than monthly here. Handle them up to dry properly and they don't smell as only used to dry clean water?

mamaraah · 31/08/2019 08:55

That does seem excessive op. I wash my towels whenever they look grubby in winter ( they dry quicker after use with the heating on) and more frequently in summer as the heating is not used and they can smell a bit when they don't dry well

mamaraah · 31/08/2019 08:57

@Lucafritz the only thing that gets them soft is the tumble dryer.

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 09:15

Thigh not everyone has a trained squirrel. Check your privilege!

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 09:23

Sequinned your dew-bathed morning routine brings to mind the many open air Tai Chi classes which take place all over the world.

Would you consider starting a small group in your neighbourhood? What a lovely thing it would be!

RiftGibbon · 31/08/2019 09:26

No white towels.
They get washed weekly, but thoroughly dried after use.

TheWhoreOfStMawes · 31/08/2019 09:33

I be scrapping me arse across barnacles to clean it. Bladderwrack do dry me some’at lovely. I be popping the bladders in me arsecheeks for shit and giggles.

nakedscientistOfThigh · 31/08/2019 09:43

Filthy filthy TOWELS. That water you wash them in has been through untold stomachs, Urgh

You must rub yourselves in sand and Hoover it up. Fresh clean sterile Haz Chem suit each day, then old one burned.

No pooh, just colonic irrigation, minimal pooh particles released. Otherwise you're DROWNING in the things.

Tweetingmagpie · 31/08/2019 09:47

@ineedaholidaynow my washer and dryer is on constantly but that’s just the way it is when you have a big family, there’s 10 beds sheets to wash ( once a week here but two of them are for step children who only sleep here every fortnight so they are washed less) and clothes and towels for all of us plus the dogs blankets, I probably do at least three loads a day if not more!

Bills are a lot but that’s just part of the deal of having this many kids!

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 31/08/2019 09:49

That sounds a bit expensive Naked, every time I want a poo I must book a colonic irrigation?

But wait ... I know I shall become a doctor of colonic irrigation and do my own! I have a hosepipe and a bucket (bucket's not empty but it'll do).

As soon as I'm fully qualified I shall be offering my services to all!

I'll start a waiting list now ...

YoTheGinPussyOfStMawesOnThigh · 31/08/2019 10:03

Approaches with bumhole distended. Yes please Dangly.

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 10:08

Dangly that sounds intriguing! What will you say when a doctor is called for, in a theatre or on a plane, though?

A waiting list is a great idea. Can I put other people on the list? Do you do gift tokens?

HairyDogsOfThigh · 31/08/2019 10:08

Dangly, I don't have enough money to pay for your services once you are fully trained, can i sign up as a 'model' for you to practice on, so i get cheaper rates? I'd rather you wreck my arsehole with your incompetence than risk a poo particle contaminating my body via a towel.

Wehttam · 31/08/2019 10:13

People who wash towels in with clothes are animals. It makes my stomach turn. 🤮

My DP thought it acceptable to wash the pot towels in with his underwear wash. My head literally exploded.

YoTheGinPussyOfStMawesOnThigh · 31/08/2019 10:14

What was good enough for Princess Diana is good enough for me, can’t wait. Bumhole pulsates with excitement.

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 10:14

Naked I have blown the cobwebs off my vacuum cleaner and even looked in the manual (!)

I can't see that there is an attachment for hoovering my body. I've got something called a crevice tool, is that it?

Signed,
A Concerned Housewife.

YoTheGinPussyOfStMawesOnThigh · 31/08/2019 10:16

Wehttam any spare loose brains send them our way, bucket waiting to be filled.

Your DP is worse than an animal, he is a maggot.

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 10:18

Yo don't be mean about maggots, they're still God's creatures! See also - dung beetles.

HairyDogsOfThigh · 31/08/2019 10:21

Ooh, dung beetles, i see a business opportunity, can we train dung beetles to crawl up our arseholes and excavate the poo and roll it away, thus keeping our towels and flannels poo crumb free?

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 31/08/2019 10:22

Dog that is the exact gung-ho attitude that make Britain great!!

Far too many 'risk averse', 'health and safety obsessed nut jobs who have to dot all the i s and cross all the t s. We shall learn together! me and your bumhole! It shall be free for you since I am training and you will be in mortal danger the whole time!

Look we have a waiting list!!

Hang fire folks I just need to do Dog's arse then I'm fully a doctor!

Yes you can ask for me on planes, I will gladly try open heart surgery if it helps someone!

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 31/08/2019 10:39

Dangly you already have a lovely bedside manner!
