So those of you with an electric shower might want to get a move on in there
Irons use a lot of power. When I have ironing to do, I get everything organised first, before switching on the iron, and if I have to stop mid-way through the ironing (not that I iron a lot), even for just five minutes, or to answer the door or phone, I switch the iron off. Irons heat up fast, it's better to stand and wait 30 seconds with the ironing ready to go, than turn it on then sort out the pile.
