Socks

After the heady heights of yesterdays Eagle Head Portrait, today we get back down to earth - my socks. OK. Not just my socks. I don't have that many feet.

I don't normally do my washing in public. Nevertheless you might like to know I built a 'lean-to-shed' on the side of my house. There's only one side on the shed. The shed points in the direction of the wind which blows end to end - right through. Inside is all my washing on a whole range of lines. Winter, Summer, rain or shine I hang out the washing in there and it drys.

You see here the sock section. Quick and easy to pair 'em up when they are dry, then straight into the sock draw! There is a towel section, a shirts and skirts section and the 'grundies' are hung up in the rafters! Trousers go at the far end opposite the towels. Keeping up or gone to sleep yet?

So, there you are, number one in a series of things you did not want to know about my domestic arrangements. Well perhaps not... zzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzz.

I love it... really fun shot and story of the ordery system... I am like that too... ok... not soo systematic... but I do wash our socks in a separated load... rs rs rs...

@carrapeta00 - The beauty of my system is that I wash everything together, then I simply add the wet things to the end of the occupied lines. As things dry I take them off the beginning of the line. Thus a continuous cycle. This saves sorting washing and because everything is pegged out in a given location they are all ready together when you want to put them away. You only sort once when you are hanging out to dry. Simple. Fast. More time for pictures!

The colours of the socks have made for a fun pattern, and the fabric plus pegs means you've got interesting textures too.

So funny, I didnt realise people are so organised to do their washing. I just hang mine up- no order Im afraid. hehe
