I will have to remember this little piece of information when I visit the UK for the first time next spring.

I think ironing t-shirts makes only slightly more sense than ironing underwear. I do however know someone who irons her sheets. I don't know where people find the time for this stuff. Who has time to iron sheets when there is Team Fortress 2 to be played?

You must think undershirts are called t-shirts.

I don't iron, but I do all of mine and the kids laundry every Sunday while I'm watching the football games. I do that, and in return the wife can't bitch/complain/roll eyes, etc about me watching football all day. Works for me Big Grin

I was just thinking that a GB-PVR mug, printed with the logo on one side and a keyboard reference for Live TV on the other, would come in real handy, and found this thread. Has any official thought been given to this topic?

Cafepress.com says they "..have thousands of international shopkeepers..." and "...ship around the globe..."!
