I just walk straight into the shower wearing the whole lot. Double benefits of washing myself and my clothes twice a day. Plus you can make the same set of clothes last all week. Mmmmm, fresh!FCN3: Titanium Qoroz.0

the more you say the more i worry about you
i'm not sure i have a routine to be honest - it's whatever occurs to me to take off first - usually shoes, socks, top, and so on - but not necessarily.0 -

Top.
I learned some years ago (can't remember where) that a Gentleman should always remove clothes in the presence of a Lady in this order to avoid appearing ridiculous:
Shoes;
Shirt;
Socks;
Trousers;
Underpants.
But leave the spats on if she fancies that sort of thing.___________________________________________

Armwarmers then shoes then shorts then top before the female members of staff turn up, don't want her getting too excited at the site of my toned abdomenI've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0

It's okay, when they read your spelling they'll no longer be interested? Or was that a witty pun
For the record I use shorts, i don't find they move about and are plenty comfy.0 -

If arriving after 8am then jacket off first before wandering upstairs. It's the base layer, the ladies love the base layer.
Just not the sweaty Welshman with helmet hair within aforementioned base...
The shower in your kit idea is genius btw.FCN 5ish. Unless hungover.0
