We aim to please and so we have added comprehensive washing instructions to both our washable bedding range and washable underwear range. Remember that full care details can be found on the label of the product and the product packaging. Following these instructions will prolong the life of your product.

Mum-of-three turns to stand-up comedy to tackle the taboo of incontinence
Have you heard the one about the woman who peed her pants?
Probably not, because it’s not often joked about.
But physiotherapist Elaine Miller is tackling the taboo of female incontinence in a stand-up comedy show.
The 45-year-old mum of three describes herself as a “recovered incontinent” and she is hoping her approach to discussing incontinence will help women who are suffering in silence.
One in three women suffer from incontinence and, on average, they wait seven years to get help.
Elaine said, “There is a perception that it’s an inevitable consequence of ageing or parenthood but that’s not true. There is no need to put up with it.”

Do F1 drivers pee in their pants?
During a Formula 1 race stopping for a bathroom break is not really an option . . . but what does one do when nature calls?
An average Formula 1 race can last for up to two hours, with drivers consuming large amounts of fluid during the race. This begs the question: Where do they pee during the race?
Stopping for a bathroom break is not an option, and carefully manoeuvring urine into a bottle might not end well.
Lewis Hamilton, a British Formula One racing driver, admits some drivers can’t contain themselves during a race.
“You’re supposed to go in your suit, but I can’t do it. I’ve never done it. But there are drivers that do,” he was quoted in The Mirror.
Apparently some drivers wear incontinence products, but most of them just let nature take its cause.
