The residue in your tumble drier?

[Frothybothie]

Lighthearted - what do you call the residue in your tumble drier?

Lint? Fluff? Oose?

Dh uses "oose" upon which I am conflicted. Is it couthie or cute?

Oose.

Oose for me too (weegie)

Oose. Originally from the weeg, now east.

Dry fluff in the filter is lint here and the wet mess in the pull out water bit is gunk or gunge!!!

Dry fluff is "oose" here. Also applies to that dandelion fluff that gets everywhere in early summer.

We just call it fluff. And we collect it in old tubs then in early spring put it out in old fat-ball hangers for the birds to take it for nesting. They seem to like it a lot. Never heard of oose before, thanks for a new word learned!

Another one for oose! This word so reminds me of my lovely mum and has made me smile to day. ( bits of fluff on jumpers etc was also called oose.)

Oose, fabulous word.

Pronounced of course oooss for those that haven't come across the word before

Fluff.

"Would someone empty the drier please, and fold the washing?"
DS and DH just grunt and continue to stare at their gadgets.
"I haven't emptied the fluff filter yet......."
"Me! Me! Me! Me!" by them both in unison as they fling their gadgets aside and race to the drier.

I remember by gran mentioning it when we visited her in Kelvinside, Glasgow, the read about it in the lovely JJ Bell Wee McGreegor stories and it just seemed a good word. Times changed then it reemerged when dh started using it.

Oose for me too.
