A Washing Victory
By Adrian Sutton
Until just recently, we haven’t had any real rainfall for quite some time. During such times, one tends to become rather lax about getting washing done because it’s just so easy to throw it on the line whenever and within hours of daylight it will be dry. Sadly, this went someone wrong for me on the weekend. I did a load of washing on Saturday and didn’t get around to bringing it in before the evening dew set in. I then did another load on Sunday and the rain set in just as I finished hanging it out. Sunday night and Monday was heavy rain and storms, this afternoon another storm is on it’s way in and rain is predicted for the rest of the week. Things looked bad for me having clean clothes to wear by the end of the week (I don’t own a dryer). Fortunately, leaving work slightly this afternoon paid off – I got home just in time to get my washing off the line before it started raining. And if you’re wondering why I’d post this here, it’s because I felt I just wasn’t airing enough dirty laundry on this blog…
