Do you hang your undies on the line?

Mad-Frog

I hang undies out on the line along with the rest of the laundry, for those that don't do you spend the time then picking out all undies as you hang other clothes? And where do you dry them?

Seems pointless to me

I hand wash bras so sometimes they just get left to dry on radiators, funnily enough I have noticed that my neighbour never has undies on her washing line (not that I look really

Why do people care so much about washing lines? Lets have a campaign to eliminate those pesky slugs instead of caring about smalls

Another that does not.

When i was in Leeds I had a lovely little garden but the wind took some of them.

The following week.. more were missing.

The week after i caught sight of the bloke swiping them from my washing line.

So nope.

I will hang it out sometimes... I like those round hanger thingys but my cheap one fell to bits!

It's all academic at the moment anyway, can't hang anything out until it stops raining, there's been 1 good drying day in the last 2 weeks, and apparently its summer, no one seems to have told the weather though.

We had a what was in your last load thread in the arms (well, 2) but they both died

I don't think that my neighbours are interested in my knickers on the line, one is a widow and one is a divorcee, no pervy men ogling my smalls (apart from OH :rotfl:)

My mum's knickers are a bit of a standing joke in my family, years ago my dad bought her a pair of crotchless knickers (as a joke, he said!) for her birthday and he dared her to put them on the line, in full view of the nosey neighbour two doors down. She did and he took a photo. Now, every time we go to her house and she has her undies out to dry, we take a photo. When it was OH's birthday, we changed the screen-saver on his pc so that he was greeted with the words "Happy 50th Birthday" over a pic of his mother-in-law's knickers! :rotfl:

My mum use to tell me this too when i was little, and i used to take it seriously, it's only now i realise that the state of my pants would be the least of my worries

The last thing I would want is them getting distracted from trying to put my head back on by commenting on how nice my underwear happen to be.


Besides that, they cut your clothes off you anyway

I am glad i started this thread, it has been really amusing and insightful, i have enjoyed reading the responses:):o.


It's weird how many people though actually like seeing washing out on the line, i too am the same and love to watch my laundry flap about on the line, it gives me a nice feeling of calm. What is that all about, i didn't realise so many people had laundry obsessions, wonder what it is all about :rotfl:

My step-mother used to use my dad's tatty old yellow-stained-at-the-crotch Y-fronts as dusters :eek: That was quite traumatic as it was me who did the dusting........

The irony was they were bloody loaded (my dad and SM - not the pants ) and didn't need to skimp on things like dusters!!

:rotfl:

I hang my undies on the inside of the line and usually hide them with bigger items on the outside of the line

If I have bright sparkly new whiter than white nicknacks, I don't mind them being pegged with two pegs in all their full glory. The vibrant pug ones however, go to the inside of the twirly whirly washing line, sometimes two to a peg depending on their pugginess!

I was going to say if they need one peg hang 'em out but if they need two pegs keep them indoors . But one peg for two, ahh it's a long time since I could hang two pairs of knickers on one peg and expect them to dry, you're showing off now :rotfl:

I love seeing my washing blowing out on the line. Clean, fresh and free.

Now, if only there was an easy way to tackle the ironing.
