Laundry for Men

[Amy]

How hard actually is it to put a load of washing in a washing machine (a full load - not 3 socks and a shirt and assume it's full!) without partially dying the contents?

When the washing machine has finished and the contents have indeed been partially dyed - and by contents I mean my new Next green and white striped top, how do you get these randomly dispersed blue stains out?

Yes, it has dried too. If it had still been wet I would have tried rewashing.

Also, is divorce preventable in such circumstances.

Re: Laundry for Men

Can I make a suggestion!

1) bleech it white.

2) get some green and white stripe dye.

3) dye the top with said dye, problem solved.

If that fails raid hubbies wallet and go get another top.


Good luck.

Amy you could try colour run remover, think most supermarkets sell it.

I would suggest removing your OH from laundry duty, it's far too complex for them IMO.

This is a good suggestion, might make him more careful in future...

Gotta agree with Di tho...much as I hate to say it, it's probably easier you doing it yourself hun....saves all that time later when you have to resolve the f***..erm mess.. up he's made of it!!!

Bear in mind tho...the boys are never too young to learn - get em while they're young, far easier to train

Re: Laundry for Men

I've sorted it out, so he's still alive.

I covered the stains in Vanish, scrubbed it with a nail brush, covered it in more Vanish, scrubbed it some more, put some more Vanish on it and then washed it (with Vanish and Vanish powder) on a hot wash with loads of biological powder - thrice.

All the blue stains have gone and I am wearing it now - so he lives to see another day!

I just hope he doesn't find out that I ironed son #1s t-shirt without turning it inside out, melting the letters onto the brand new iron, which incidentally smells nice when you use it.

Vengeance will be mine when he irons his white shirt with it.

When will you women realise, we do things wrong on purpose. That way you don`t talk to us for a wee(bliss) and you never ask us to do it again for fear of a repeated mistake.

Not as daft as we look are we lads

SHHHHSSSHHHHH!

The male conspiracy will get you, if you keep giving out our secrets.

Next you're gonna tell them about the REAL reason for Man Flu.

Re: Laundry for Men

I can do things 'wrong' with very little effort too.

While attempting to cook, break some things, drop the vegetables on the floor a couple of times, make sure the pasta is really soft, set fire to the radio; all of these little tricks work like a dream.

Hardly a secret......

Man flu is a largely pejorative term that refers to the alleged exaggerated symptoms experienced by men when suffering from flu or a cold.
