That's OK if you have a kind lady who does that sort of thing. The current Mrs. DR's job description does not include such activities.
Remember an episode of steptoe and son ,when old Albert put some cheese through a mangle for Harolds sarnys,my gran had a mangle and yes Monday was wash day,full day operation
There are clearly different models of Mrs DRs I’m only allowed near the washing machine or iron in an emergency, but in mitigation she doesn’t wash pots, and only cooks when she feels like it, and I also do the grocery shopping.
