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.

    • Now a good curry…yummy… beats slaving over a hot stove, endless potatoes for roasties plus carrots and parsnip peeling..  Christmas pudding made with cream or brandy sauce. when one things about it, obscene the amount of food one consumes on the big day… and then the washing up…. Used to cook for 10 so do know what I am talking about…grant you, nice to have company and friendship but now reached the age when I am quite happy having a curry, wandering around in my PH’s all day and eating, watching, doing what I want when I want.. Think actually that Gail’s staff can’t say no not working… sacked I would think but equally catering for people who might be in Dulwich for the holidays and visiting and in an air b n b..  Put of interest, is this the only Gail’s opening? Or are they all opening? Plenty of other places open on the day… sure cafes in city are open…And of course, always MacDonalds..!!!  
    • When I managed a large staff group, and workers were needed for Christmas day, there was always a queue of people wanting a shift, for many reasons.  Where is the problem-why is it shameful?
    • 🎄Are you flying solo for Xmas?   🎄Let’s be honest-it can be weird. But maybe it’s also a chance to just …chill.   🎄How are you planning to treat yourself and make the day feel good?   🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅All ideas welcome.    ✌️Drop yours below. 🎄🎄🎄
    • Until the licencing laws changed in the late eighties, pubs were only allowed to open Sunday hours on Christmas Day, so 12 'til 2, and the majority didn't open in the evening unless it was for a 'private party'. But that's another story. The landlord of my old local used to let everyone double or treble up at last orders so that you could avoid having to watch the Queen's Speech with your Nans at three o'clock. Dulwich Tandoori is open Christmas Day for those who don't fancy Gail's.  'Festive Flavours', apparently.
