    My son and I always have a look at the BBC weather for a laugh each morning. I love the way last week it said sunny with cloud as we looked out the window at the blackened skies and hail stones bouncing off the garden chairs!

    It is not raining here yet but I can see a very BIG black cloud looming overhead so i'm sure it wont be long now. Have refused to hang my washing out since it taking three days to dry four items. It stopped raining by the time I brought it back in and started almost immediately I put it out so ended up leaving it out there until it dried.:p

    I am having to use the TD much more than I wanted to this summer. I am also trying to get DS dry at night (he decided he didn't want a nappy anymore) so we are having a fair few accidents, feels like washing machine is on constant at the moment.

    You have all made me chuckle - trying to outwit the weather. Don't you know that black clouds gravitate towards clean washing?:D

    I put my washing on the large airer on the patio then when it starts to rain I rush out and manhandle the airer in through the patio doors. Ha, dry washing! Well, sometimes it is - depends how quick I move!:o
