I had a friend saying last week and Yesterday I washed the bedding and this morning I put it in the tumble.

Why is it that when you make the bed putting the duvett in the cover is a real pain but when you put the bedding in the tumble everything ends up inside the duvett cover and then the cover seals itself by twisting itself around and around?

Maybe if I put the duvett and the cover in the tumble it will sort itself out?

Anyone tried this?

Why don't you close the poppers/buttons on the duvet cover before you put it in the machine?

It is easy to apply the duvet to the duvet cover if you start off with the cover inside out (generally this task is performed when I take it off to wash it)! You the put your hands inside the corners of the cover, grab the corners of the duvet and shake the cover back the right way in. If you're really clever you can also use this manouver to remove the socks from the inside of the cover, which is now the outside. I think. Or something. Anyway....

Wash it inside out. Then climb indise the cover and grab the corners of the duvet through the cover. Shake like a dog with a rabbit and you'll end up with the duvet inside the cover. Do up the buttons. Takes about 2 mins.

Alternatively never wash your duvet. That's what Digger does.

Kirstie that would be far too simple.

Obviously Kirstie has done the Speciality in this and her advice has been taken onboard.

Maybe I should have paid more attention when I had my own specialist in residence.

Ohh I think thats what they said!!!
