To be, or not to be, that is the question



How often should you wash your sheets and clothes?


Bath towels absorb moisture and the dead skin cells each time one takes a shower. And when wet, they may easily form habitats to bacteria and mould. It is advisable to wash the towels after use on approximately three occasions to ensure that their hygiene is maintained.



To be Green, or not to be Green, that is the question.

What would Greens say about taking a shower in the first place? There is no way round it, taking a shower involves the feckless pollution of water, whether tap water or rain water. Washing sheets, towels and clothes simply adds to the pollution.

How about not having a shower and regularly bashing clothes with a stick to knock out any unwanted lodgers? Could work and we may as well try to be constructive about the problem. A stick bashing approach does sound reasonably Green.

Moving on to flint kitchen utensils...

Could we wrap the towels and sheets around a Green candidate before we bash them. However, this will mean they will still have an infestation (the candidate) no matter how hard we bash them.
Slightly off topic, apparently, a local Green candidate referred to Polanski-Paulden as a treasure. Worthy of being buried at low tide on a desert island somewhere? Just asking.
