Luckily, I got the washing off the line earlier as it was nice & dry. We now have black skies & it's pouring with rain, with the odd bit of hail mixed in for good measure. The weather forecast this morning was for sunny intervals & strong winds. No mention of rain or hail. Mind you, I've lived in England all my life, I should know better than to trust the BBC weather forecast.

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
