Re: Ironing - love it OR hate it what do you iron?


This is one club that I will not be entitled to join!!!

I don't think you loonies are alone though - I am sure that I saw a calender once about EXTREME IRONING - I believe it is a recognised sport!!!!##

Do take care though - scalding is horrible and can I put in a plea ....... please do not try to iron your cats! Or if you do, only on cool!

We only iron clothes and bedding (in between rescuing the iron from Dylan trying to cuddle it )

Wonder if there's an ironers anonymous?

Ironing's a sport?!
I iron whatever comes out of the dryer and sometimes pieces of paper but I don't enjoy ironing loads I like dusting more than ironing.
Felix likes to watch me ironing it's so funny. lol

Re: Ironing - love it OR hate it what do you iron?


Being really nosey now, what's your weapon of choice?

I bought a Philips Steam Generator some time ago (might have even mentioned it on here )

tech stuff -
5 bar steam pressure
120g per minute continuous steam
150g per minute steam boost
1.4 litre tank

Love it and because all the water's in the separate tank, it's not a heavy iron which is good for my RA

(I can hear DM groaning all the way from Washington! )

LOL, and accompanied by eye rolling! I was even happier than my Dad when he retired, as I no longer had to iron those white long sleeved shirts!

If I am in the mood, enjoy ironing....But only iron things that need it, no dusters, or dogs duvet covers, they are folded when they come out of the dryer, all they need...

I can't bear it!

I send my ironing to the laundry

If I absolutely have to then I have the ability - just don't use it very much.

Never do towels or underwear.

Ironing is a dangerous sport & I'm not taking any risks
