How do you get a worm back in its hole?

Changing a duvet is like making love to a beautiful woman.
You've got to stuff it all in, shake it about, then when you're happy, lay back and enjoy your efforts.

P:lol:M:lol:S:lol:L
 
just make the bed with two sheets like you would have with blankets in pre duvet days (So I've heard but i'd guess you are old enough to remember :p) then you don't need a duvet cover, simple
 
In answer to your original question, make it a black hole.:)
 
how did this reach 3 pages, and what's a duvet cover?
 
Duvets . . . one of the greatest mysteries of the universe.

And I have another one.
Normal night . . . king size bed . . . two adults and a dog . . . I get a 6" strip along the edge of the bed to sleep on.
Now somebody explain to me why, when Darren's working away, there's one adult and a dog . . . but I still only get a 6" strip along the edge of the bed :thinking:
 
Duvets aren't they what golfers make when the miss a shot.
 
canines expand to take up the space available to them, its known as dogs law ;)
 
because pack animals have to sleep with their alphas to feel safe - particularly if they are a solitary doggeh - although kim doesn't sleep on the bed (she chewed the duvet), she sleeps in a crate next to the bed instead
 
Maisie doesn't sleep in the bed but on it. Usually down by my wife's feet until she (cat) decides it's time to wake up, at which point she walks over Mrs. N and lies between us. She does generally wait until there's some sign of life from us but not always! She actively dislikes being under the covers unless it's her own idea. Usually when it's least convenient.

But then there are 3 seperate items, to end up on the floor instead of just one.

Now you see how easy spam threads are to start and how they evolve :p

Holy thread resurrection!!!

Yes, cats snore and they also take up an inordinate amount of duvet so we've upgraded to a king size on our double bed.

Not sure what Chris's problem is with loading the worm into the hole - managed it in a couple of minutes in the same way I did the double. Niece (as the saying goes) of niss!!!
 
This has got to be one of the most funniest threads I have seen on here to date. I can change my duvet cover in about 60 seconds flat, by turning the cover inside out which is already prepaired as I leave it like that once it's out the tumble dryer on my wash day. Find the two corners grab the two corners of the duvet and shake job done, it really does puzzle me as to why men make changing the bedding such hard work. :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:
 
Yeah. I don't really understand men and women who boast about their inability to do things that are perfectly straightforward. I'm a man, and I can change a duvet cover in a couple of minutes. It's simple. My wife and daughter struggle a bit with changing a car wheel, but that's because they're petite and lack the strength to do it easily, not because they don't know how to. They have work arounds. Join the AA/RAC, and carry a canned puncture repair product. My daughter also has a Plan B. She's an attractive young blonde, so she reckons standing beside the car looking helpless should get some assistance...........

That system breaks down on two counts for me.
1) the cover only opens half way across the bottom.
2) my arms are not long enough to span the two corners of a super king sized quilt & cover,
therefore everything just bunches up with only half the offending item grabbed, and shaken (but not stirred :p)

And so the search for the perfect solution continues.........................
:p

Pmsl........... Just as well you don't work as a chamber maid then :exit:. If I lived closer I'd offer to show you how to do it.
 
Cats do snore. I measured two of mine at about 66-68db a few cm away from them....Both female. Male cats in the household don't seem to snore much. They just yowl annoyingly instead.

I did a variation on one of the duvet cover methods. Fold duvet concertina style. Push into duvet cover. Hold two bottom corners of duvet and corners of duvet cover together and shake out. Concertina duvet then rattles out to fill duvet cover with minimum fuss. Rolling duvet would also work. It just works on premise of holding two duvet corners with 2 duvet cover corners and shaking them until they fit...
 
Well that seems to be another method worth trying Suz :thumbs:
But what do you do when the bit in the middle droops :thinking:
3 hands are needed I think ;)

And that is some noisy pussies you have BTW :D

Got any clothes pegs? Use one on each corner instead of your hands, then hold the middle bit and do your shaking. Kapiche?

Drink less!!! And yes, she is noisy - woke me up at 1am this morning with her purring - I think she likes the new duvet!

I think a couple of bulldog clips might be a bit more secure,
but its worth a go :thumbs:

Gaffer clamps - much better than bulldog clips.

(NB. Resist the temptation to put a gaffer clamp on your nose to see how much it hurts - I tried this once :eek:).

Thanks for the tips, especially the second one :thumbs:
(What ever possesses us to try these things, I'll never know :D)

Here's another useful tip (nowt to do with duvet covers): never stick your finger in one of these to see if it'll stop the drive motor - I tried that once too, and it didn't :eek::eek::eek:
 
Is this thread still going? Thought it would be put to bed by now. Most techniques have been covered. Time to sleep on it, make your bed mind up and get back to being a tog-ger...
 
Yep I have to agree, each one a very groan worthy pun :p

But you should also by now, some of the best long running threads are about nothing important whatsoever.
