Red Squirrel Aug 2015 3:11pm, 24 Aug 2015 18,807 posts	0 Red Squirrel What's the longest I can leave washing outside on the line? I put washing out on Friday and it's now Monday. I have a small flat and it's been raining all the time since then just about. I've never left washing out overnight before.
Fleece and Dust Aug 2015 3:15pm, 24 Aug 2015 22,730 posts	0 Fleece and Dust RS: I find if it spends a few days outside getting soggy it goes a tad smelly and needs washing again.
Red Squirrel Aug 2015 3:16pm, 24 Aug 2015 18,808 posts	0 Red Squirrel I'll go and get it now and wash it again then hang it round the flat. Got about 10 smelly dog towels queueing up to be washed too.
Red Squirrel Aug 2015 3:35pm, 24 Aug 2015 18,809 posts	0 Red Squirrel It's coming to that interim time when heating's not on and the weather's not good enough to hang washing out. My friends up the road with the tumble dryer are on holiday.

'Melvyn' - where you run you fingers through your washing, you think it's damp but you're not sure. It could be dry. You leave out or take in? you've done a Melvyn'.
