changing my sheets

How frequently should one change their bed sheets?

Here at the field station, the answer is once a week.

My colleague's 18yo daughter just started working here as a house cleaner for the summer. Today, she told her mum (who then told me) that they were cleaning my room and apparently the older ladies were curious why I hadn't changed my sheets (despite leaving me a fresh set every week).

I thought I was being considerate. Instead they think I am a pig.

Oh, I would hate to tell you how long my sheets remain on my bed before I change them.

Ah, but you are a clean pig.

Evidently 40% of Britons change their sheets once a week. I guess I am a dirty pig after all.
