    You know there is something about the smell of a laundrette ;) (not as good as the smell of a curry but not bad). Perhaps re the business idea you could have your enterprise located in a laundrette just beside a curry house.

    Ye see thats were ye guys get it all wrong. Dont mess with a proven winning combo on the ironing business plan to draw in the punters. That other stuff is potent, (and not in a good way) No doubt its highly flamable in the laundrette as well.(health and safety ;))

    If this is the beginning of a working partnership can I manage ye? Now I am rubbish at ironing and hoovering. However, I can work on a domestic goddesses' angle for the name of the business, draw up a business plan, work out how to share of the profits,(hem) and send out a few flyers. Hey presto. :D

    Do you reckon extreme ironing might be ironing clothes when they are still on the person. There may be a SMall niche market for that. :eek: T shirt wearers would be on the real extreme end of the market. ;)
    Takola what can I say if the ironing doesnt work......may need to go to plan B. :eek:

    Can plan B be freestyle ironing tuppence, sueme? I think i could take a dab at that.

    Jeans with one leg ironed. T-shirts with holes the shape of irons in them! We could become iron artists! :D Make a fortune!

    Hmm! I'm not sure it would be worth our while going to Donegal for one house! We'd have to be reimbursed travel expenses and paid by the quarter hour! :D
