The burning question*: Do you regularly iron your clothes?

It’s Monday, so let TheJournal.ie distract you from the ‘serious’ news with one of life’s REAL dilemmas. (*not really)

WE KNOW HOW you feel. The week is stretching out in front of you and you have a lot on your plate.

So do like we do here inTheJournal.ie HQ and get stuck into a serious debate on one of life’s most pressing questions.

This week: There’s one thing we can all agree on at TheJournal.ie HQ – we DON’T iron our bedsheets. When it comes to the clothes on our back, however, opinions diverge.

Some of us iron on a ‘need-to-iron’ basis, ie, infrequently; some iron EVERYTHING; some don’t own an iron. Where do you stand on the matter?

A. I rarely iron my clothes, or…

B. I iron most of my clothes
