tips

TAKE CARE

1 Add only the recommended amount

of washing powder.

2 Make sure the end of the pillowcase

is secured.

ROOKIE ERRORS

1 Don’t use any Napisan, it contains

bleach to clean crap out of nappies.

2 Don’t overdo the washing powder

or you’ll end up with white streaks in

your immaculate gear set.

3 Don’t add any gear caked in mud to

the machine as it can’t handle it.

PLEASE DON’T

TELL MOTHER

Don’t let your mother or

wife catch you washing

your gear in her Miele or

you’ll be cleaning all your

own clothes, forever!
