Without it ending up mangled?

Don't think Anthea has covered this, has she

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

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.

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

Ceolas · 20/02/2007 21:26

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

Next lesson is how to fold a towel I lurrvvee Martha

Stiller · 20/02/2007 21:27

DS does have 2 sets.

BettySpaghetti · 20/02/2007 21:27

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

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!

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 · 20/02/2007 21:33

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

Just really hacked off after doing the sheets today!

Glad I could be of service.

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

MrsJohnCusack · 20/02/2007 21:40

like this apparently

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

MrsJohnCusack · 20/02/2007 21:50

oh FFS my so called broadband is SO SLOW

MrsBadger · 20/02/2007 21:51

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

foxtrot · 20/02/2007 22:53

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

MrsJohnCusack · 21/02/2007 04:52

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)

alipiggie · 21/02/2007 05:17

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.

Lanark2 · 18/04/2016 15:43

I don't know.
