I used to iron my son's shirts, and hang them up until I found him ironing them again. Why - because they were creased by being in the wardrobe - after that they were ironed once only - by him.

Hubby irons his own shirts. He doesn't trust me. I buy non or nearly non-iron uniforms and assume paint, glue or gravy will be spilt down them within minutes of entering the school gates. I iron party frocks for the girls, but that's as far as it goes. If I ironed, where would I find time for geneaology?
