A dryer sheet helps too. I'll agree, the only way to get fluffy towels is in a dryer.

You really don't need to launder anything above 40 these days. 60 is good for sheets and towels, especially sheets as it kills all the bugs. The washing temperature has no impact on how stiff they dry.

No wonder sunday became ironing day
It wern't as bad as it sounds for her though. She's a mother hen, she loves it. When I came home from Uni one weekend with my clothes washed up there, she was well disappointed. |

Indeed the only things that get regularly ironed in this house are my work shirts, they get laundered on Saturday and taken to the launderette on Sunday for ironing. I collect them the next sunday. £1.20 a shirt to iron them. V. Good value IMHO.
