You (or your wife) irons your boxers and your towels?

I just iron the things that need ironing. Mostly shirts. No one will see my boxers other than me and maybe my wife - plus they'll get all creased after sitting on them for 10 minutes anyway - so there's little point in ironing them.

I would pay by weight or by item but I wouldn't choose a service that charges by the hour as it doesn't have enough transparency for what would get done.

Nimbus. If I stood still long enough my Wife would iron me! Mmm, maybe it will get rid of my wrinkles.

Joking aside apart from socks everything gets ironed, she even does my garage rags.

Yes I said this to Minnie too. I’d guess the quantity covered within an hour will vary massively from one person to the next. After trying once or twice it may work out better but not sure I could be bothered with the hassle

I definitely wouldn't advise hourly, nowhere near transparent enough.
I just don't buy anything that needs ironing. I don't have an iron or an ironing board.
My ex used to iron work shirts, he did his own

That's like my mum. She always used to iron everything.

I don’t iron anything. I know I own an iron but I literally have no idea where it is.

I only iron shirts. To be fair, anything else just needs putting on a hanger as soon as it comes out of the drier and it's fine.

Is ironing still a thing? I haven't done any for years!

Does no one else iron pillow cases? I also show the duvet cover the iron, it is easier to put in airing cupboard then. And tea towels but they are mainly ornamental here.
