Oh Sheet

[sunny-dave]

​Hmmm - I've now spent two nights with my (freshly laundered) sheets feeling 'not quite dry and a bit clammy'.

The first night I did assume that they just weren't as well aired as I had thought ​- although that is illogical as they'd had the same drying routine as usual.

But they definitely weren't damp last night - I aired everything again yesterday - but I still felt horrid and clammy - like I feel when you should have had a shower after a busy/hot day but couldn't be bothered.

I've now stripped/changed the bed and was simply going to put the offending bed linen in the airing cupboard until it was next time for a change.

But I just had a 'lightbulb' moment - it was all hung on the line for several hours during the 'sticky red dust' fall on Sunday - and that is exactly what it feels like - clean and dry but a bit tacky. So it needs to go in the washer again ...

... I will now wait for some helpful advice about tumble driers

You're getting confused, Dave.

It was Monday when we had all that dust (and so, presumably, when you put the sheets on the line).

It was probably Sunday when you washed your car, just before all that dust landed in it ;-)

[Old_Geezer]

Get one.

[sunny-dave]

Yes - you're right of course Chris - the effort of changing the Duvet Cover for the second time has addled my brain.

And yes - I had the car valeted on Friday ...

It'll only need a rinse, Dave. No need for a full blown wash.

[ummmm]

Yep...just a quick wash. And get a dryer... :-)

Covers and sheets dry surprisingly quickly.
