She said to come over here and say a big hello! :-)<br /><br />But I do relate to the quilt in the bath thing. I tried to do that once only. I don't have a car and the laundrette only opens on weekdays when I'm at work. So yes, like you I beat the darned thing (with my loofa) but the worst was after. As in where on this god's green earth do I drip dry it?<br /><br />See I don't have a garden - just a bit of patio at the front. <br /><br />and of course the thing has not only expanded but gained weight and is also one very grumpy quilt.<br /><br />Anyway, just to say - I feel your pain!<br /><br />Take care<br />xOld Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13185547869183611159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20795953.post-82124401768054469732010-06-14T07:27:04.833+01:002010-06-14T07:27:04.833+01:00Oh dear.
