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.

    • Is he local to South London? My father made his solicitor the executive. I, for many years had Lasting Power of Attorney to deal with all his finances including liaison with his bank and payment of his care home fees. I was also responsible for the sale of his home to release funds for care home fees. When he died, I notified the solicitor, obtained the death certificate and organized the funeral, cleared his care home of his possessions . Myself and my cousin were beneficiaries but my father had left a small sum of money to a man in the Midlands whose name was unknown to all of us including my step mother. It  took around 9 months for solicitor to establish that this gentleman had been deceased for a number of years . This obviously put additional charges onto the fees.
    • He's probably in his 70s, just doing a few more bits of work for his clients, many now deceased (ie executing their wills) who will be in their 90s. Everyone else who is younger than 90 will do their research and not use him,
    • I suppose we are lucky that our daughters both drive so do not have alcohol when they are with us.  I start my Christmas food shopping in October, when prices are generally lower. Turkey Crown from Iceland, gammon from Sainsbury's, get put into freezer as do any other bits and pieces i.e. prawns/seafood. Fruit and veg from Aldi nearer the time,. Having 3 vegetarians plus a gluten intolerant, I make much of the other food stuff including desserts. Aldi's version of Baileys is half the price, plus beers and ciders are good value. Neither of us are wine drinkers We generally have fish or vegetarian based food from Marks plus a dessert, I suppose I have always been a careful shopper - I was a single parent for many years where all my wages went to paying the mortgage leaving around £10 a week for food and other bills. My work colleagues used to mock me when I said that a chicken would last us all the week ending up boiling up bones to make a soup base. Old habits die hard even when you have a bit more in your pocket to spend.
