Re: Are You Common If You Hang Your Washing Out On A Washing Line?

Common seems a very strange notion relating to washing lines!
Yes I always hang washing out, all year round.
The green method too.

He told me his late wife would never have a washing line and hang washing out as it was common! She dried all her washing in the tumble drier.

I couldn’t believe what he was saying as l had never heard such a thing before but on googling it... some do deem it as ‘common’ to have a washing line!

Have you ever heard such a thing and what are your thoughts on this?
Silly inverted snob !
Bet she never had sec either probably thought it was too common
I will not use a timber dryer it ecologically damaging uses loads of electricity and I like the smell of washing dried in the open air .

Re: Are You Common If You Hang Your Washing Out On A Washing Line?

I've just had a memory flashback from many years ago when a friend moved into a nice village . She told me that first week she had quite a bit of bedding and washing to do so she hung it out in the garden . A neighbour called round to tell her that no one in the area hung washing out on the line on a Sunday and would she take it in right away .

She did too . How awkward

I can remember the days when we couldn't put our washing out on a Sunday too. We couldn't even play a game of cards either
