guy that irons my clothes, for example, recently left his mobile
number with my wife "in case of emergency" [1] to use his phrase.

[1] What's a clothes ironing emergency? I have no idea!

oh, you know, like there's a sudden business trip, and the guy's delivery
boy won't be around till tomorrow on his usual rounds - leaving you with an
armful of fine shirts you want ironed pronto before you fly out ..

[for me, that is a necessity rather than a luxury - i am way too clumsy
with irons so end up either not ironing clothes properly - some creases get
more prominent rather than getting ironed out - or the clothes just get
scorched]
