We don't have rafdiators

we don't have a fire

we don't have an airing cupboard

the weather isn't conducive to line drying

I have no wish to spend hopurs in a laundrette

i have 2 children in washable nappies

HELP!

Indoor collapsible dryer - they're great and dry surprisingly fast.

And maybe buy a pack of biodegradable disposables - just for use until you get the new dryer delivered

We have hot air heating

Tis shite

It makes the atmosphere like the Sahara within 2 mins and is sub zero within seconds of turning it off. We don;t bother with it.

In fact, the tumble drier keeps the house warm and toasty!

We will buy one, but we can't magic all that money out of thin air

OK, I have a load of nappies on some crappy clothes horse thing tht leaves rust stains all over everything.

I reckon they will be dry by about Thursday. AAARRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Oh and I find hanging shirts, etc on hangers helps a little. I don't have a tumble drier and somehow manage to dry all my stuff (inc 1 set of Washable nappies) on a metre long radiator.
I love the sun.

Think I'll have to get disposibles. I have no principles, so it's ok

Will try and dry them over the vents. Can't wait to move house. Hopeful;ly I'll have a landlord who doesn't think it's still 1985 (Entering our house is akin to entering an 80s timewarp)

Nip to Asda if you can and grab yourself a clothes horse. They are fab!!
