That should read, he has a clean flannel every day !

MadBadandWieldingAnAxe · 19/10/2008 21:48

Every couple of days. Those 'How Clean Is Your House' ladies say it should be every day, though.

Saint Anthea Turner says after one use and I now go with that. Have a basket of clean ones by the bathroom sink.

Every day.
God i am such a slattern.

FeelingLucky · 19/10/2008 22:52

Flannels should be every day but I only bother with that rule for DD;s flannels. My own are once a week and Dh doesn;t bother with a flannel.

DoubleBluff · 19/10/2008 22:53

I have one of those scrunchie things tha t I hae never washed. Will i die soon?

Skramble · 19/10/2008 22:56

Ditto scrunchie thing rinsed out everytime. Kids just use hands not bogging flannels or sponges.

MadBadandWieldingAnAxe · 19/10/2008 23:06

But will we really all die of scabies if we use the same flannel for three days?

Skramble · 19/10/2008 23:07

certainly not scabies , its actuall proper real beasties.

i wash my flannel once a week and never even considered that it wasnt often enough

i was my bath towel once a week as well and at least once a month its washed at 60

I should use a new flannel each morning and each night because I am very prone to spots but yes, at least once a day.

geekgirl · 20/10/2008 00:15

after each use

just get a load of flannels from IKEA
