Ironing shorts?!

[Deleted User] · November 2003

whooppeee!! what a relief - i was starting to get a bit worried, especially as i even iron the M&S non-iron stuff. Nothing better after a stonking good run on a Saturday morning!

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Too bad Pernickety But no longer seems to frequent the forums - he was the king of ironing!

Anyway, not that I would, but if I did try to iron my shorts, I'd probably end up melting the synthetic material that they're made out of.

Weird? Now let me see. People who get up at about 6 o'clock on a Sunday morning, travel to weird little towns, to run anything up to 26.2 miles in force 10 gales and pouring rain! Does that sound familiar! So who exactly is weird?

[Deleted User] · November 2003

My philosphy is: if its gonna need ironing, don't buy it!

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Mad Kat, the thing is, er, um, I mean, you're wrong because.... ah, er..... cough.... you're just wrong, OK????

Erratic & Mrs NRG-B - ever thought of trying Extreme Ironing?

nrg-b · November 2003

Err..excuse me. I said Mrs NRG-B loves to iron especially when watching soaps on TV. Some sort post-modern zen trance to find her inner peace having traversed the rigours of the day - I dunno.

oh yes, mindless cr@p on TV essential to ease away the tensions & stresses of the working day in a sweep of steam! Ultra iron - now there's a thought!!!!! I want to do marathons too.

I iron my shorts when Im wearing them takes my mind off the race

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Erratic, d'you fancy coming round to my house when you've done yours?

just a thought...

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Of course! Are you feeling better by the way?

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Or if u feel lazy here's the " rel="nofollow">link.

nrg-b · November 2003

Damn! Let's try again! LINK

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Mad Kat, someone who does both?!?!?!

nrg-b · November 2003

That's better. As you can see, I need to iron out some problems of my own!

[Deleted User] · November 2003

hahaha - no i haven't. :-)

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Anyway, I see nothing wrong in wanting to travel to some godforsaken place and inflict some pain on yourself.

But ironing shorts and bras ?!?! Now, that's just wierd!

nrg-b · November 2003

Just noticed in the link. On that red-sign in the background, is that a letter "A" hidden by the green foilage?

And if so, Why?

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Now that is weird!!! Now if you went round with a washer-dryer as well, you could sort out all your clothes for the week so you don't have to do it when you get home.

[Deleted User] · November 2003

NRG, because they could see something through the hole he made in his shorts when he did the ironing?!?!

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Ironing never heard of that!!!!!!!

fat buddha · November 2003

doesn't ironing melt the lycra??

you lot are weird

[Deleted User] · November 2003

Exactly, fb: my mother-out-law was staying with us one weekend, and insisted on 'helping out' around the house. This included ironing Mr Kath's running shorts and melting the fabric, and leaving bleach in the (cast-iron) bath to clean, but of course not remove, a tiny little spot of limescale.

[Deleted User] · November 2003

a bit of kitchen roll over the top whilst ironing prevents burns/melts!

fat buddha · November 2003

just for you weird lot

If only the search facility existed we could resurrect the old ironing thread.
I have a fabulous tefal turbo iron with separate water tank (150 quid from Comet)but this is for my work I only iron at the end of an evening when it's already been on as a way of winding down. I confess to squeezing clothes in the shop to see if they crease and leave well alone if they do.

Monique · November 2003

Kath did you kill her? my m-i-l only puts the tea spoons away in the drawer the wrong way round so I am lucky.

[Deleted User] · November 2003

seem to have touched a sensitive spot here!

There are two kinds of runners, it appears - those who iron, and those who don't.

I'm firmly in the latter category - Mr Snail does all the ironing :-)

And I really look forward to the football and rugby on TV cos he's only allowed to watch them if he irons at the same time :-D

[Deleted User] · November 2003

I think that's worth a call to the Social Services - the man is clearly used and abused!!

Is he allowed out at all?!

Howdy, Stranger!
