How to Get Things Really Flat - by Andrew Martin - BBC Radio Audiobook - cheops

I Think, Therefore I Drop My Clothes in a Heap...

Andrew Martin is surprisingly well qualified to write a guide to housework for men. Not only is he a man himself, but he does a lot about the house. On purely humanitarian grounds he recently took over some of the ironing from his wife; he then branched out into bath-cleaning, "specialist" dusting, and washing up after dinner (when he wasn't going out).

For the purposes of this book, Martin has interviewed many experts, and can thus provide answers to such burning questions as:

Do I Need to Bother about the Controls on the Iron?

Is Dust Dangerous?
and
What is All That Stuff at the Bottom of the Laundry Basket?


The result is an elegantly informative read, which interweaves witty, practical housework advice and musings on the nature of domestic politics with recollections from the author's Yorkshire childhood and highly illuminating scenes from the daily sit-com of family life.
How to get things really flat will amuse and instruct any man, forced at gunpoint by his significant other to read it.

Five episodes of approximately 15 minutes each.
