we wash our clothes every night and then hang them on the clothes horse in front of the dehumidifier and sure enough the next evening its dry... we also have a nice big airing cupboard which we put things in overnight..
i can imagine it would be different if we had loads to catch up on.. could you possibly take them to a laundromat and catch up?

kelly- i know how you feel!!! middle of winter last year our washing machine finally gave up and died and it took ages for the new one to turn up and i had filthy wet farm clothes,towels,kids clothes just piling up. in the end i went to the other workers house and used his washing machine to do a few loads.
i always seem to have heaps and heaps of washing-towels,playcenter clother,and farm clothes/overalls.....i just dont know where it all comes from!!!
we do have a dryer that i try not to use. and i spent all day saturday hanging out and getting in washing. and yet my lounge floor has dirty clothes from here to there scattered all over it, wet towels all over the bathroom floor and non of it all seems to be mine.....

Ive been without a washing machine for a week (part of my renovating nightmare!) finally got it back in on sunday night and have done about 15 loads of washing in the last two days! Honestly we had no clothes left, I had to go and buy new underwear! luckily we had good weather the last two days and most of its dry but my couch is piled up, have to sit on the floor until i get it all folded and put away plus i still have two washing baskets full to get through and the weather has just packed in.

my mt wahsmore has migrated and now inhabits all the couch and the top of the gas heater that got moved next to the couch!
i always find that if i fold the big stuff like towels and linen and put them away then the pile never looks that bad after all.!

Why do you put your washing on your couch? Seems very odd, must be another one of those strange kiwi habits.
My dirty mt washmore is erupting out of the laundry basket in the laundry and my clean mt washmore is in neat little piles in laundry baskets. I fold as I take off the line, then they only need to get put away, I also have a phobia about ironing, I absolutely refuse to iron then put clothes in drawers only to iron again before wearing.
I think I might have to put some clothes on my couch, I feel like i'm missing out.

i only have one big washing basket and if i folded it as i took it off the line i wouldnt get half as much in it lol.
i take it off the line and pile the washing basket up high, make df carry it inside, tip it on the couch then go back and get the rest. then normally i sit down with a good dvd and fold....but i just have no motivation to do it...
i want to clean but cant be bothered

Don't you find that you have to iron it again when you take it out to wear?
I don't bother ironing till I'm gonna put it on, and DH does his own ironing. I really fricken hate it, someone needs to invent non crinkle clothing.

Well I don't iron full stop I think I own one thing that needs to be ironed so it doesn't get worn much my mum neither ironed so I guess thats why I don't I find if you hang things up straight away they don't need to be ironed anyway. But my nana irons everything flannels etc

My washing pile breeds, I'm sure it does! It spawns socks and nappies and towels...
