How the hell do you fold a fitted sheet?

[Ceolas]

Without it ending up mangled?

Don't think Anthea has covered this, has she

[Lanark2]

I don't know.
[just wanted to get in on the zombie action]

[alipiggie]

Well it was actually a wonderful spanish lady who told me how to fold a fitted sheet just like that in 1986 when I was an au pair in Belgium so Isabelle - gracias.

[MrsJohnCusack]

that must be it foxtrot. There can be no other logical explanation

(and do you know, I tried it too. Too hard for me - all the fitted sheets are once again stuffed into the cupboard any old how)

[foxtrot]

LOL - just wondering if you saved it to your favourites when i posted the link a while back?

[MrsBadger]

don't worry MrsJC, by the time it arrived your post was positively retro

[MrsJohnCusack]

oh FFS my so called broadband is SO SLOW

[MrsJohnCusack]

like this apparently

(I had this link in my favourites - why?)

[BettySpaghetti]

Glad I could be of service.

I'm off to draft a letter to the BBC -Antheas had her day, its my turn now!

[Ceolas]

I'm not usually a frequenter of the GH board.

Just really hacked off after doing the sheets today!

[BettySpaghetti]

LMAO!

I'm still reeling at the shock of having an answer to a Good Housekeeping query when there was even a doubt cast over whether or not Anthea had a solution

[Ceolas]

Lol, betty. I just shove them in and close the door quickly! When I think about it though, we actually only use about the top third.

Could do with a bit of a clear out!

[BettySpaghetti]

Ceolas -have just PMSL at the photo of the neat cupboard! Mine is about the same size but when you open the door you have to be prepared to catch an avalanche of bedding and towels

[Stiller]

DS does have 2 sets.

[foxtrot]

Next lesson is how to fold a towel I lurrvvee Martha

[Ceolas]

I haven't even joined the thread although I've lurked. Too much action for me to keep up with!

[Othersideofthechannel]

Stiller, what do you do when your DCs vomit in the middle of the night?

[MrsBadger]

Oh, I thought I recognised you Ceolas - EDD 21st Aug confirmed by scan but I'm too lazy to catch up with the huge screeds of Due In Aug threads I've missed .
Love to you all though.

[Stiller]

What, you mean other people have 2 sets of bed-sheets? Mine are off, in the washer, in the dryer and back on the bed all in the same day.

[Ceolas]

Betty, there is a handy link at the bottom of that page to "Organising your linen closet"

[Ceolas]

at your laundry foxtrot.

[BettySpaghetti]

That bloody Martha stole my idea, adapted it slightly and then explained it in a better way.

I honestly do this with my fitted sheets although you'd never guess if you saw the state of the rest of my laundry cupboard

[foxtrot]

LOL i have it printed out and tucked behind the ribbons on my handmade pinboard in the laundry

[Ceolas]

Btw, MrsB, have you had a scan yet? My EDD is confirmed as 24th August

[madmarchhare]

I cant believe that people worry about this
