Jeezy breezy at the Trowels (not a misspell)..
dry so far,
a good day to hing oot yer washin'..

reminder, must buy Mrs M a new stone
or should I save her hauling the washin' to and from the stream 2 miles away?
and get one of those new fangled twin tubs ?:ohmy:
Breezy here. Too breezy to chance hanging any washing outside. Unless you don't mind washing it again, assuming you get it back.

Rocks are cheaper than twin tubs. You can pick one up almost anywhere these day's.
You could offer to help carry the washing home.

Busy, on a Sunday!!
A watched pot never boils. You should know that.
Suppose it doesn't agree with you?

I'll try...

Smells nice, tastes nice....

I have to look after Mrs M now...
reached that stage..
Think the stone is old hat...
remember ma mum's old wringer ..
we'd a washhouse round the back of the tenement..
Our day was a Monday, light a fire under the big cast tub, batter the washing occasionally with a thing like a pick handle, two deep ceramic sinks and a wringer , Acme if I remember..
One of these mofos

then a Hoover single tub (pre-loved) model with a built in wringer..
our machine now plays tunes to let you know what cycle or operation is finished...

What stage would that be?
Nothing to do with the stones you've recently put in yer garden...
What about, one of these!

And always a cold wash to boot.
Were you roped into turning the handle on a washday, as the clothes were fed through?
First machine was a single upright tub. Used to have to sit on it to limit its dance around the kitchen. Then a twin tub, which had it's own dance and the spinner was lethal. No health safety warning.
Latest one can be controlled from a mobile phone. Set it going, stop it and even get alerts for when it runs into a problem.

Wow, technical stuff..
don't think I could handle another woman around the house...
she wouldn't fit in our wee washing machine cupboard,
hammock perhaps?

Had the app chance but nah, got apps for everything else...
The light bulb here in Bob's shack get dimmed by an app....

She's only demonstrating it, she doesn't normally come with one.
If you were to ask nicely, she might even let you try it.
You could try be you buy, then pay on monthly installments.
Hammock indeed! If you can't fit a wee lady in yer washing machine cupboard, how are you going to fit a hammock in there.

Not gone down the app route yet. Maybe when they get it so it takes the clothes out, and hangs them up to dry.
Lights dimmed by an app, I still use a switch, manual version. You're posh.

A dollar a week, sure t'is a dollar a day day round these these parts. They'll have you paying them, if yer not careful.
Play radio, go for a walk, go shopping(on yer own).

I've been pickling again...
think I'm in the books of bad..
started around 5 and someone couldn't get the tea on for all my pots boiling, jars in oven etc...
two jars now cooling....
I'm present hiding oop stairs..
Earlier was the spring clean of my wee room, still got floor to hoover, tomorrow will do.
The Pledge got laid down and shiny, shiny..
I could wax (groan) lyrical about the shine :cuppa:

Finally got logging program label part to work so now its much easier to print off labels for return cards..
I'll do labels tomorrow as well.

TV is mince (again), the Toob for me I think..

Yer picklin has got you in a pickle, and the book of trouble. Did you get yer tea is the key question?
If yer hiding upstairs, are you certain yer jars are safe...
Could you not do the hoovering now, cover anything that may be shouted in your direction?
Taking the pledge, why not Mr Sheene who shifts, seals and shines in sheconds.
Will your waxing turn lyrical...

No more writer's cramp filling in yer filing.
Take it easy to start with, don't get carried away.

Seldom is it different these days.

You survived that's the main thing. Any elbows in the ribs during the night?
