hmm BoughtDH a packet of hankies for Xmas (bought him other stuff as well!) and as well as the plastic outer pack, each one had it's own bit of white paper inner with two bits of sellotape each to keep it rolled up. Took ages to unpack ''em.! And ages to get the sticky stuff off of my fingers! hmm

Before you ask, if I hadn't unpacked them for the daft bugger him and put them in the drawer, they would not have got used. hmm

You do know how to spoil a man JBF .

And then you have to wash them! - yukkk!

Oh, I know, Mishap! shock
DH insists on using them, whereas I haven't used a proper hanky for years - tissues are much more hygienic!

Horrible things. They weren't called snot rags for nothing.

They just go in the machine with his pants. Separate from all other washing.

hmm

(supposed to be about packaging, not my old feller's yucky habits hmm)
