    I have a bar screwed into the top of one of my doors so I can hang shirts on hangers on it. This stops the creases in a lot of the shirts and I hang trousers on pegged hangers.

    There are LOADS of reports already on this site. I have one and use it all the time in the rain. Just search for 'rotaire' and you'll see how many people are using them. ;)

    I know - I've read some reports on here where people rave about them, but all reviews are welcome before I part with my dosh :) I wonder if anybody has used one and thought it was rubbish?

    I have a real similar bar also. I also hang on my bra on my door knob to dry LOL

    We are a family of 4 children and 2 adults and now the weather has turned im struggling , the weather has only been bad 1 week . My tumble dryer is only in use for the school uniforms atm as i cannot bear to turn on that money gobbling machine :( I have 2 airers that only really hold half a load my clothes are plus size so unfortunatly take a fair bit of room up (sz22-24) I have a towel hangin on the tops or doorways but that isnt so inviting when you have guests that just drop in unannouced

    how are you all coping do you all have any tips for me ??:beer:

    Got to admit it's TD at the minute for us if it's pouring down, I'm trying to back up laundry until a nicer day is forecast (like tomorrow) but that means piles of dirty washing as I hate leaving damp piles. Airing rails are taking 2 days to dry minimum as we've not had the heating on. My friend swears by her dri buddy but seen mixed reviews.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    I use wire clothes horses dotted around. I'll put towels n trackies on the radiators to stop em honking, as would dry too slowly, as it gets cooler.

    Luckily I don't have too much washing @ any given time...

    If I ever get overwhelmed I'd go to the laundrette to catch up!

    ive never had a tumble drier and will never have one !, we usually hang our washing outside, or if its a late wash or bad weather its hung inside on clothes horses
