Washing!!

One of the problems with doing a big load of washing on a Sunday is that you are left with a big load of ironing to do on the next few days. So, it was the ironing day today.Since we bought the new bedding, which is gorgeous, I have rediscovered the need to iron bed linen.It comes out of the washing machine so creased, but it is actually quite nice to get it all crease free and nicely ironed. I don't mind ironing actually, I like the way you can freshen the clothing and make it look good again.The worst thing we ever had to iron though was Jane's old school skirt. It was box pleats, and had to be held down while it was pressed..absolute murder. VT and I used to do it every Sunday night during the school term.
He has been zapping the weeds in the front and the back gardens today. It was a lovely sunny morning, but the sun went in at lunchtime and it has gone quite cold now.VT has just lit a fire again, I can hear him throwing the fuel on.
Jane has been emailing me today on her new phone. She said she was on the bus, sending emails. There was a man on the floor of the bus last night, and she thought he was dead, and then he started snoring!! All human life gets on buses. She said the bus driver was really grumpy, and this little old lady got on and gave him what for and told him off, she said it was really funny.
Tonight we are having:
Quorn bramley apple sausages, with apple slices
Mashed potatoes,
Spring greens.
