Ironing Puns

Without a trace of irony, here is a page of ironing puns and humorous wordplay.  

Next time you are faced with a pile of clothes that need ironing for next week's school and work - you can recall this page and set to it with a cheery whistle.

​Or was I being ironic?

cricketers are good at ironing - spend time at the crease
genius plan for no more laundry - just need to iron out the wrinkles
golfers carry between 6 and 9 irons in their bags - probably why those greens are so flat

​iron your money, launder it - and don't tell the IRS
ironing - take creases from one place and put them somewhere else

lost my temper with the ironing - I was steaming
played washing clothes poker - I folded
​​Scottish soft drink - Irn-Bru

Thank goodness that's over.  An hour or so working over a hot ironing board trying to think of humour involved in the process.
