Washing macbine/washing powder questions.

we use Unstoppables on the bedding and towels, I like the smell tbh, but not on shirts, it clashes with my blue stratos aftershave

We use Aldi liquid non bio at half the recommended rate. The best way to bring freshness to a wash is to hang it on the line. Difficult for some folk and for most at this time of year.

Washing powders eventually block the waste pipes - not a problem with liquid soaps

TBH when mrs ck isnt watching i do washes with a very small amount of powder and no conditioner on a quick wash and everything is clean and smells fine so like most things I feel they are selling you a dream to get your cash .

There was a recent study or similat which demonstrated that the amount of powder the company tell you to use is hugely more than you *actually* need to use for clean washing. Apparently the right amount is around 2 tablespoons of powder for a full wash or two teaspoons of liquid.

My Y fronts get a quarterly scraping with a garden trowel to get flakes off and an annual tidy up with Tippex to keep them looking fresh.

Handy hint. Next time you're wondering which washing powder/liquid or dishwasher detergents take a look at the active ingredients. In many cases you're simply paying extra for fancy packaging with a Fairy logo or shiny spoon on the box.

Elephant posing pouch then 😱

no

although it was just a case of who was going to say that!!!

expected some "other people" but whatever

SWMBO must have had "thoughts" some years ago as she got me 3 pairs of a different design
I think the fact that I never wear them made her realise that I may seem very easy going and pliable - but I do have hard and fast lines that I will not cross!!!

but to repeat - no form of posing pouch!!!!

Appropriate mens underwear depends on body shape. Boxers are really only suitable for those with thin legs and a narrowing at the hips so that they hang rather than cling. Boxer briefs are often too constricting at the top of the leg for those with well-developed thighs.

Pray tell me, what type of undies wouldn't have that problem?

I use an old pillowcase and a length of rope as a posing pouch. It's a bit tight, but it gets the job done.
