Daddy Steve: With this many kids, every day is laundry day here at Gregoropolis.
Old Alice: Back in my days, we didn't have fancy machines like this.
We had to run all the clothes through a ringer. And everything needed to be ironed.
Anika: She does like to go on about the old days.
Robin: Old people are like that.
Anthony: It's easy to tell which clothes belong to whom.
Luke's jeans are always the ones with the dirtiest knees; I don't know how he does it.
And Rhoda always has the grungiest looking socks.
Spaghetti sauce, chocolate, peas...
Robin: Peas?
Anthony: I know! It's hard to believe, but Frank is crazy about peas.
Robin: It's always the quiet ones.
Anika: The laundry here certainly is a neverending job.
Anthony: Oh, I don't mind it. You kids are all pretty helpful, and there's
a sense of order to the whole process that I really appreciate.
Tyler: Watch out, comin' through! Comin' through!
Mikko: Yeeeee-hawwww!
Anthony: Oh, those two --- !
Anthony: >Sigh<
Anika: Yes, definitely a sense of order...

I'm dying over Robin's iron!! I found one (former fridge magnet) but a bit smaller than I'd like. I have to say, I'd haul Tyler and Mikko back in and make them do all the clothes over, if it were me!! But then again, I am one of those annoying "old people!" lol!!
Poor Anthony just when he had it all running like clockwork !
I'm one of those old people whose mum had a mangle (wringer) and used to help turn the handle to wring out the washing !
Nice laundry you have there, I wonder if I could get my kids to help.... mmmm maybe not , they haven't got past the getting things into the laundry basket let alone actually putting it in a washing machine !
I think someone probably threw those peas at Frank .....
I hope poor Anthony will be able to appreciate the process of making order again - else he'll feel quite frustrated!
We here are definitely lacking a Sasha sized washing machine. AND room for it, I'm afraid...
