Dark DocMoye!!! Crikey, what time do you get up in the morning to switch your washing machine on?

Or are you crafty & have it on a timer?

Yes timer for me too, uses the cheap off peak electric and that electric is also more likely to be from renewable sources than at peak times

Our old machine had a built in delay and apparently our new Samsung does too (I’ve just never noticed)

Another gloriously sunny day down here on the South Coast. The only problem is, after yesterday, all the washings up to date.

About This Thread

Maintained by Jock Itch
For lovers of the art of hanging the washing out:

Weather forecast: Shall I hang my washing or not ? Check here:

bbc.co.uk

Terminology: 'Fluffing' -- Going out and runninng your hands over the washing just to feel whether still moist. Sometimes not needed but we all like to fluff

'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'.

Also for sharing photos of 'Extreme pegging'. Plastic or wooden they are all embraced here :)
