Quote from: Scrumpy on Today at 03:56:44 PMCHF. I doubt anyone can fold a fitted sheet 
When we had a static caravan stuff like sheets went to a serviced laundrette. They managed to fold them. I think it requires a big table.

I've often commented on the portal to other dimensions here. You clearly have one too. If it's anything like the one here your missing cover will be spat out into our universe eventually. It could be later today or much much later. The pottal moves in mysterious ways.

Today I cut one side of my hedge.. I took the safety cover off the blade and threw it over the hedge back into my garden..   I never did find it again.. I heard it land..
It didn't go into the bin with hedge cuttings.. the cuttings were picked up from the pavement..
14 inches long.. gone in a flash.. All bushes and surrounding areas searched.. again and again..
14 pounds later a new one will arrive tomorrow..

I wouldn't let any of my children/grandchildren walk to school .. far too dangerous out there.. 
Children can learn road sense.. Drivers be more aware..
But there is something more sinister out there ...something a child can not deal with.. Something we didn't have to worry about back then..
Mum used to say ' Don't talk to strangers' and that seemed to be enough to scare the daylights out of us kids..
I don't recall me or any of my mates being approached by a 'stranger'....
We used to walk through the park to go to school.. Through 'The Hedges'  which was a cutting .. fields either side with horses in.. Sometimes alone.. Never once were we afraid to do so..

The more I think about this stupid idea, the angrier I get. For a start how can it be monitored and enforced. If it happens one inevitable result will be more children involved in traffic accidents, especially in winter. If it results in the death or injury of just one child it will be a national disgrace.

Washed my bedding and it's now in the tumble dryer.
I'm still unable to fold a fitted sheet neatly.  :worried:

My button stays on at all times; they are waterproof. 
I press it once in a while to test it, as asked.
