Are those underwear peg things any good?

[MamaG]

You know, the ones that clip onto your washing line nad have a round thing underneath with lots of little pegs on, for underwear. Do they work, or do you end up with damp knickers?

[MamaG]

oops, this isn't good housekeeping!

[MamaG]

please?

[PrettyCandles]

Yes, they're good if you'res hort of line space. Things do take longer to fry, obviously, but get there in the end.

[nearlythere]

why are you frying knickers?

[MamaG]

my knickers are hot stuff already I don't need to fry them

[NuttyMuffins]

I have one but hang it in airing cupboard not on the line.. Tis good, generally can fit all underwear from a wash on there and it dries really quickly.

[MamaG]

Ta nutty, thats a good idea

[PrettyCandles]

sorry, didn't spot htat. One-handed typong.

I@ve got some from Ikea (shaped like an octopus as it happens). I@ve not noticed them taking longer to dry and they're fab as you only have to snatch [snurk] one thing off the line when it's raining! Great for indoors too where drying space is limited- I hang them from a curtain pole above a radiator, stylish but effective!

I use mine for socks so that I don't have to individually peg 50 socks to the line - tis brill! Also useful for camping.

[WideWebWitch]

They are bloody brilliant.

[MamaG]

Right I'll buy one (from Ikea, I want an octopus)

[MegaLegs]

MamaG I am impressed at your domesticity (real word??) today

[MamaG]

AND I made pancakes for breakfast
AND i've baked today already

[MamaG]

(should add that most of my housekeeping has been discussed on here, but not actually done )

[MamaG]

Am now the proud owner of a bright orange plastic peg thing

I asked if they had it in any other colours, bloke looked at me like I had two heads

[MamaG]

I SAID I'm the proud owner of a bright orange plastic peg thing

[PrettyCandles]

[round of applause]
Now you're frying!

[LilRedWG]

Good idea Nutty! going to put mine in the airing cupboard from now on!

[LilRedWG]

Congratulations MamaG!

Mine's yellow.

I can never see the point of these things except to save space on the line.
I prefer hanging the small stuff on radiators or on the garden furniture.I am much to lazy to peg a million socks.
