After years of asking my husband to unbutton his shirts before he throws them in the wash I've decided not to unbutton them when I come to iron them. I am now ironing them and buttoning them right up to the collar Grin
He wears shirts every day for work and I iron every Wednesday. It's just the routine we have. He does iron too but I like the rhythm of ironing and I watch my programmes whilst I do it.
What kind of person unbuttons the top two buttons and then pulls the shirt over their head? Wonder how long it will take him to realise? 😂

My father used to completely unbutton his shirt and then pull it over his head. It’s made me smile to think of it now.

Ah I'm glad the memory made you smile.

Socks taken off so that they become inside out, I’ve stopped pulling them through for washing and pairing so DH has to do it himself - I always hear a slight huff !

Re-uniting socks which have become separated for several days/weeks in the laundry is one of the greatest pleasures in my life these days!

Yes! Or he balls them up so they come out still damp!
