I have a laundry FAIRY in the shape of dh, who took over washing duties when I broke my leg three years ago. He's never relinquished the task and I've never asked to have it back!

He's very organised, washing like colours together or delicates and so on. A wash goes on most days. My contribution is to fold the dried things and iron them once in a blue moon.

Gosh you are all so organised! I do washing when the basket is full, I am wearing my last pair of knickers and resorting to wearing the oldest thing in my cupboard because that is all that is clean!

I wash around 4-5 times a week. Work clothes always on a Friday night, bedding on a Saturday, Monday general clothes, Tuesdays are the grand- childrens school uniforms, towels/tea towels Wednesdays or Thursdays depending on how I have been able to get everything else dry.

In the spring and summer months I am "gifted" (by my dearest, darling daughter in law), a huge bag of manky dirty jodpurs, shirts and show jackets on a weekly basis . Likewise I am honoured to wash my grandsons football team strips on a bi-weekly basis.
why the hell do they give scruffy little boys green and white football strips, with white shorts and socks?

I also do heaps of in between handwashing for the family (and now some of my daughters friends too) as I have developed a reputation for getting stains out and washing hard to wash/dry clean only items. My latest conquest was washing and drying an Ostrich feathered party dress. It's funny how everyone thinks that my never ending supplies of detergents are magically topped up by a laundry "FAIRY"

I use a combination of washing products including Ariel Bio, Fairy non-Bio, Vanish Gold, specialist delicate handwash liquid (Asda's own make) and mass amounts of hand cream !

In my previous life I was called Widow Twanky.

Apparently - I only ever wash one sock from each pair because that's what I end up with !!

Now it's just the two of us I only do laundry twice a week, split into whites and colours.

One day I'm going to find all those missing socks !

No real routine for me other than doing light, dark and towels separately. In the winter I know exactly what will fit on my indoor dying areas so that dictates when I wash, in summer it's looking at the weather forecast to take advantage of a dry day.. sometimes a challenge in Yorkshire! Mostly non bio products for me as so many of the family have sensitive skin.

With only the two of us I do a wash load twice, sometimes 3 times a week. I do a boil wash every couple of weeks for towels and tea towels. Use whichever washing powder is on offer at the time I need it.

teetime am I allowed to copy and paste your post? That's me to a tee The only thing I would add is that husband has to see to his own sporting gear - I don't do mud on trousers* (golf), nor grass stains (cricket). *In summer he wears shorts so it doesn't matter!

I'm still trying to work out the difference between bio and non-bio but I mostly go for the gentler (non-bio) products.

I do laundry almost every day. I always separate loads into whites and coloureds. As well as our washing I do at least 3 loads of DGC clothes and bedding to help our DiL out (she works and has 4 kids.) Dil has eczema and always uses nonbio liquid for her washing.

Bath towels are washed at 60 degrees every Saturday together with the bedding, tea towels and towels. We have a deal with our energy supplier for free fuel every Saturday so I have the drier going most of the day.
Other washing gets done at 30 degrees on a short wash and then I reset the machine for a 1600 spin.
We don't have sensitive skin so use whatever is on offer at the supermarket. It does happen to be Fairy at the moment.

I do the laundry every day so that I can do it on the small load at 30 degrees.I just separate the lights from the darks and wash frequently so things don't get too dirty.I use Fairy as there are several in the household with sensitive skin.

Whites on Saturday. Coloureds on Sunday. Sheets and towels on Mondays.
As I suffer from eczema I always use a nonbio washing liquid and I find fairy nonbio to be very suitable

I do the laundry whenever it needs doing no specific days. I do towels and tea towels together on 60 degree wash. Sheets 60 degrees and everything else on 30 degrees just separated into lights and darks, lingerie on its own, hand wash nice woollies. For preference I like to get it out on the line if the weather is good.
