Laundry Helper

Today was a lovely day here after an unseasonably "cold" week (it rained a few days [GASP], and it got down to low teens at night - SHOCKER!).

[As a side note, Tanya and I get quite a chuckle out of the use of the weather term "fine" here. To us, when they say the day is going to be "fine", we take it as pleasant. This is in fact, what the word means, despite the strident objections of the Oz weather bureau site.]

Anyway, I took the opportunity to hang out the laundry, so that it would "smell like the wind" as Joely puts it. As I was hanging, I heard Joely humming away to herself as she busied herself doing something. I didn't look down, and when I was done, this is what I saw:


Yep, the sheets hung down low enough that she could reach them, and she was busy "helping" me "hang" the laundry by applying a clothes pin about every 5 cm!
