If a strong breeze makes
for a good drying day then today was potentially a very good drying day,
perhaps too good as shortly after loading up the two washing lines (risking 40
lashes from the flailing shirt sleeves and trouser legs) I glanced outside to
see nothing flapping but a lawn strewn with hitherto clean laundry and a
severed line; fortunately I had a new one ready and waiting, but unfortunately
to affix its ends required leaning a ladder up against trees that were wavering
in a near gale, however I managed and after a second lashing the only slightly soiled
washing was re-pegged and set again for a very good drying.
