    What a great score!

    You might try the Black and Decker Gizmo steamer deal to tame those curly pleats. I've had good luck with UK pleats by attaching weighted clips to the pleats while they hang dry.

    Blue, Good eye. We do need to do something about the deck.

    Ron, I suspect this one is definitely prone to pleat curl. The fabric is lighter than my other UK's and wrinkles more too. We'll see after the first wash, but I may just have to take a live-and-let-curl attitude towards it.

    Best regards,
