Okay, here’s the final count.

20 bath towels  
23 beach towels or bath sheets  
2 towels with hoods sewn in (child-sized)  
16 hand towels  
53 washcloths

And no, **Isilder** , they can’t have been “a bit smelly”, because I wash them constantly. And I rotate them so the same ones dont get used over and over.

Why don’t you live in my town? We don’t have nearly that many towels, and I’d never get mad about you washing anything or putting anything away.
