Who Else Likes Doing Laundry in the Warm Weather?

Ask a Question

Anyone else likes doing the laundry 🧺 ?!

I mean when hanging them outside in the warmer weather and finally there’s the sun ⛅️ coming out! You get so happy 🥹😅🤣🤭 knowing that your clothes will dry without having to hang them up on racks to dry or use the damn dryer!! ✌🏻

Ah the little things we enjoy 😉 in life have changed as you get older!

Leannexxx so do you hang your clothes on a drying rack inside the house?

If so then all the laundry 🧺 will take up so much space inside!

Leannexxx ..I was told by my partner that it's not good to hang clothes over the radiator as it can peel your wall paper,2 of his 6 brothers were painters & decorators by trade..

Leannexxx ,You mean those clothes airers that fit over your radiators .

I dread the warm weather for I am fearful of finding a " present" from one of our cats or their kitty friends ..

I WON'T step outside if there's a dead Mousie or if one of the cats has caught one & they are playing with it on my garden/ patio..

I LOVE the warm sun,there's a HAPPY vibe but I'm terrified of Mousies & Rats DEAD OR ALIVE!

Oh I'm totally in agreement with doing laundry in the warmer weather, hanging it on the rotary airer in the garden, watching in spin round and dry in absolutely no time...beats putting the laundry on a second spin, hanging it indoor and having to keep manoeuvring it out the way when l need to get passed it...Oh the simple things in life that make my day now I'm older 😊🤣🌞

Pinkspirit yeah we hang on the rotary square airer but it doesn’t spin lol and we have two laundry lines as well for bigger and heavy clothes

Not good to hang inside!

Sometimes clothes don’t fully dry if I don’t go and reverse them to the other side lol

Leannexxx ....Happened to my sister & brother in law years ago at 5am,there was a gang with a van at the bottom of their hill,the man two doors away saw them making their getaway,he had clothes stolen & worked with my brother in law..

My friend & I were tasked with getting going around the shops & pricing up what had been stolen as my sister had her hands full with three small boys including twins.

I remembe telling to the shop assistant in M & S that she wouldn't believe what had happened, oh yes she did,her daughter lived nearby & the same thing happened to her!!

janphoenix51 Using dryer uses so much electricity ⚡️!! How long does it in hours for a full load of laundry to fully dry?

We only use in winter and when it rains so much takes about 3 hours to dry two loads we take out clothes that cannot be put in dryer onto two drying racks in patio

I wouldn't say I enjoyed. But I do rather putting it outside. It takes less energy and we don't need to put the dehumidifiers on.

kitty88uk we use it a lot and empty it every day we've got two . one upstairs and one downstairs. The down stairs one is to dry the damp, and it's done a really good job. The upstairs one dose the washing. We do small loads to fit on two clothes horses and spread it out so got room to dry. We like it . I think one of them was £180 and the other £150.

In the summer I hunt things down to wash just to get them out out the fresh air to dry, nothing nicer than drying outdoors. I even had washing out Xmas Eve here and it air dried lovely, also picked a dry day last week to do the bedding and it air dried nicely.

Laundry has a much nicer smell and feel when dried outdoors I think. The only exception is pillowcases, as a hayfever sufferer I don't put them outdoors to keep them pollen free

I like to peg the washing on the line to dry. Even in winter if it’s windy I put the washing out to air. On my patio I have two clothes horses to put towels and other clothes on. I try no to use the radiators to dry clothing except when I need an item to wear the next day.

Sugarbabe yea we do the same too if it’s not too cold but has winds it dried up outside for few hours and if too wet they are in the dryer for an hour or two

Rather than damn 3 or four hours!
