I have heard that in some places underwear is hung on the line inside of pillowcases.
My mom apparently did not hear of that method!
That happens to just king sheets/pillow cases in my new, bigger dryer. Didn't seem to be as much of a problem when we had the old dryer. I loved hanging everything but dress clothes out in our first yard. The trees were placed just right for the lines, and I knew how to rotate through the different loads for optimal drying. The second yard wasn't as good, so I had just one long line for sheets. Here, all the trees are in the wrong places, and don't want to hang them out anyway for fear of getting ticks in the sheets and not seeing them. Not good.
I don't know if your country has a phrase for that, but over here we call that "going commando".
Komando!!
Nah it never bothered me, we all have underwear, whats wrong with that? I never understand people who panic if see in underwear but can go in bikini when swimming, it the same amount of fabric.
Swedes are not that prudish and bothered when it comes to underwear, it can hang on the line and no one cares.
How ever we did have a thief where in this area who only took granny type knickers, me and two older ladies got our stolen. Yes now you know the choice of my knickers.
about the thief.
Danes and Swedes don't always spell words the same way, even when they sound the same. Sometimes they spell a word the same way, but don't pronounce it the same. E.g., the word for "machine" is "maskin" in both languages. The Danes pronounce the "k" like in English. In Swedish, it's a soft "k", so they pronounce the word almost like in English.
Hmmph. I guess I can forgive the Norwegians for this nonsense. They are probably still smarting from all those years of Danish rule. But, I thought Swedes would have gotten over the Kalmar Union by now. That ended almost 500 years ago.
