... they're frozen too... BlushGrin

I'll send DH out to retrieve the solid line of clothes later.

Whoops!

How was it even warm enough to put them out?! It's been Baltic here.

Ah, I remember a happy memory of being at my granny’s as a child some 40+ years ago: she had hung the washing out in winter and it had frozen. I remember two pairs of my brother’s jeans being frozen, and one was in a position that made it look like it was taking a step.
DB and I laughed for hours.

I once let my clothes get darked on for a few nights.
when I did take them in, inside my t-shirt was a giant flying cockroach.
took ages to get it out of the house.
I don't do darked on much anymore.

Frozen jeans v much a part of my childhood too.

Darked on is a nono Shock Grin.

I've seen people regularly hanging clothes out in the snow and minus 8 or so up here. I've always wondered what the point is but maybe some people like frozen clothing? :o :o extra fresh!

I put the underwear in the tumble dryer yesterday and forgot about them. They’ve not been “darked on” but I think they’ve been damped on!
