Packing up your bedding in the morning-
How to Fold a Fitted Sheet Like a Pro

[noel_w]

Sorry, life is too short to watch that all the way through.
Not even sure why the thread title got my interest. I am far from being afflicted, maybe even completely opposite direction

[jclures]

Now if he could do it one handed I might be interested.

[Axl]

OOOOhhhhh dear.....

[Hollowaymoon]

OMG........would have to be an Adeladian, I can say that 'cause I lived there once a long time ago!!!

[prodigyrf]

Was bringing in the washing and I recalled catching the end of some how to on folding fitted sheets on the telly and wondered how they do it and then naturally thought Google will know. Ask a silly question and you'll get a bloody complicated answer so back to my deviant scrunchy ways.
Which got me to thinking about all the manic grey nomads you come across camping and vanning with too much time and money on their hands and we needed a special thread to judge the best of them and their ways. You know those pics of rollout synthetic lawns with portable picket fences and garden gnomes, etc, etc....
Do we have a winner?

OMG...that's brilliant...!   

I hate folding fitted sheets.  I hate it when the missus asks me to put the washing away and there's a fitted sheet involved.  I try so hard to get it folded neatly and I never seem to be able.................



Why are you looking at me so strangely...?

[prodigyrf]

Life is not fair Darcy. You live in Adelaide and try so hard to pass your Grey Nomad 101 exams and all you get is the odd rubber stamp smiley face for most improved or most participated 

[RobM]

If he could fold it like that standing in the back yard under the clothesline I'd be impressed

LOL...too true.

mind you...you have achieved 'hard floor camper' status here.  That has to count for something. Recognition of prior learning perhaps?

I'm an Adelaidian, I watched the whole video - and yes it did impress me!!

My wife also says that I have OCD - maybe cleaning out the grooves in my camper awning poles with a toothbrush before I sold it gave her that idea... 

[berlitza]

Not sure why but I feel like shooting myself in the face after watching that

I wasn't going to watch it until I read your comment mate 
I could only get to 54 seconds

That's absolute crap................ You don't have OCD mate.

You're probably more like me and have CDO. Its a bit like OCD, but the letters are in the correct alphabetical order!!! 

[scarps]

Doesn't everyone fold them this way?

Oh and I prefer COD

[Bad Scott]

Does this count

[MDS69]

So someone finally found my tutorial. It only took me 17 takes before I was happy with it.

[Andreweasty90]

Nothing wrong with a bit if OCD in the right places like the shed and garage as for folding sheets wouldn't know they are a mythical creature that magic appear all nicely folded in the cupboard after I put them in the wash when the missus asks  me to take the laundry basket out

Seriously where would you find someone to make and upload it AND a second person to video it
