Oh I hate that too! I also hate it when you put something down for 1 second and someone comes to grab it away.

i look pretty hot in an ironing board though.


cept when it traps a boob when you are trying to collapse it. as happened the other day - hence the irrational - or perhaps given the circumstances perfectly rational - rage. and pain. serves me right for ironing.

xxxxxxx


Lay the empty cover flat on the bed, with the opening at the bottom.


Push the quilt into it, shoving the two top corners of the quilt towards the two top corners of the cover. Make sure the quilt is not twisted.


Hold one top corner in each hand, with the cover and the quilt both held firmly.


Shake.


Adjust the bottom corners.


Close the bottom opening.


Simples :)


Well, works for me anyway .....

If you find any of my socks, let me know, I have a whole pile of single socks :))


If you lay the quilt down flat as well (if there's space) before you start, so its top end is next to the quilt cover bottom end, if you see what I mean, it helps it not to get twisted.


But yeh, must admit, putting on quilt covers is not my favourite thing either .....

i have finally figured out what the problem is. i am not a real woman. but this video will help me. and any other lacking women out there.

Sue, if you get bored try this, start with the duvet cover inside out, put your hand inside down into one of the bottom corners and grab the bottom corner of the duvet and pull it through, repeat for other side*...job done.

    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
