Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

So I went for a run and the sun came out so I scoured the house for yet more washing. Within 20 minutes of hanging it out it started to drizzle. Now heavy rain. Oh well, can't be lucky every time.

Absolutely pouring with rain. Not what was predicted. All the neighbours have hastily got theirs in.

I put the washing out when I got back from my run 🏃🏼‍♂️ this morning. I hate to say this after reading the above posts, but the sun 🌞 is blazing 🥵 down from a clear blue sky.

Fourth load in the machine, most of first load already dry, feather duvet hanging on the airer outside. (We haven't been hoarding washing, we've emptied all the fabric items out of the garage loft and I'm washing the things that are worth keeping.)

I'm jealous David. It's stopped raining here but it's chilly and there's no breeze. My washing may not dry today.

It was a nice morning here, the thin stuff had dried overnight so I took it in. The thicker stuff was nearly dry so I thought I'd take it in after my run. Started raining on my run. None of my three sons thought to take the rest in so back to square one.
