Spent the day washing my duvet in the bathtub. Is that normal? I've done it a few times but never head of anyone else saying they do it. Seems like the logical way to clean a duvet though, it's not going to fit in the washing machine. I use a broom stick to swirl it around to give it the washing machine effect.
The reason I did it is because I felt something crawl up my leg in bed last night and when I investigated found a spider roving the matress. In a mad panic I smashed it to bits with a cigarette box. In my head the whole situation was like that scene in Dr No when Bond has to wait for the Bird Eating spider to crawl off his face before he can kill it, but after I calmed down the spider I killed was only about the size of a 10p.
Still pretty creepy. Kept telling myself I'm 25 and it's never happened before, so hopefully it will be another 25 years before it happens again. I'll probably wake up with one in my mouth tonight now.

Yeah I'm in the opposite situation: measly machine and a slab of a duvet.Matty wrote:Mine fits in the machine alright (Granted its a single & a large capacity washer)
Not thought through how I'll drain out the water now you mention it. Probably have to drape it over two of those airer things and hope it'll be alright by the morning.
