Washing Day

I come from the land where the Hills Hoist was invented and  it is still widely used on washing days across the country . Rarely have I used a dryer and do not own one. I am a fan of the old fashioned clothesline, of clothes blowing and drying in the wind and sunshine and fresh air. Washing day in Italy means hanging your laundry  and "smalls" out of your window on poles and lines for the whole world to see. My fear is not the world seeing my underwear but falling out the window while I try to fasten on the pegs !!!!
