Wow, a lot on here with much fewer items than me! Last yr, ds didn't have enough for clean every day without a wash, and iron in the week. To be honest, I found it a pain thinking in the evening, oh, I need to was those trousers, dry and iron for tomorrow. Never has he come home clean enough to wear the next day lol

So, This yr, he has 5 trousers, 6 polo shirts (2 each of white, red and yellow) 2 non logo jumpers, 2 logo jumpers, 10pairs sock, and 5 vests. I know I have clean ironed (do all ironing at weekend) uniform every day, and no matter when I get in from work, know I just gave yo pull each item out the drawers when he goes to bed ready for the next day.

Last year for Joshua we bought:-

3 Trousers
3 School Logo Jumpers
4 Plain Polo Shirts
School shoes
5 Vests

This amount worked out well as he always had at least one outift clean without having to do washing all of the time.

Plimsolls bought. £1.99 a pair in shoe zone

I am struggling with wellies. I may need to ebay it as nowhere seems to have his size and I don't really want to spend masses on a pair that will stay at school.

ETA: Ebay has saved the day. I intend to get him another pair for home next month but got a pair that he's happy with (pirates) for £7 delivered.
