Well you did title the thread "One for the ladies" so I think it's appropriate.

Re: One for the ladies. Maybe.

I think 'one for the ladies' has a rather sexist twang to it! Lots of men do domestic chores these days. Although having said that I have to admit my husband left all that to me, including the raising of the kids, apart from the fun and educational activities!

If you had taken the time to read the title properly it read "One for the ladies. Maybe". Thus avoiding any sexist remarks, because I know that some men, through choice or not, do perform household chores, my own husband being one. But his ironing skills are non existent
My word though, you do tend to nit pick But hey ho, bring it on if you feel the need

My husband will also help with the ironing if he sees me busy with another job but that's beside the point ...... I certainly didn't read your thread title as being sexist

I bought a new ironing table about four years ago, I have never used it!

Very true! I would have got rid of it when we moved if it hadn't been for the fact that I suppose one day I might just have a need for it, if I have to dress up for some occasion!

Take it back, you may get a refund Or give it to a charity shop, it's a shame to let it rot.
If you don't iron, you must either, walk around naked, or wrinkly, or perhaps both
