It was very humid all summer which made the clothes take all day to dry and still be somewhat damp. Now that we are in to Fall it works a little better. I am thrilled that you think my life is fascinating while I think it is very dull. I think living on the boat would be very interesting and different from my life. Plus living in a country other than America is very fascinating to me for someone who has never traveled abroad. Thanks for writing a requested post. Have a great weekend.<br />Blessings<br />DianeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10214322750183022876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-86847969486733799.post-37680801230151829112011-09-24T06:41:30.475+01:002011-09-24T06:41:30.475+01:00Val - when I first met Pete he insisted that his w...Val - when I first met Pete he insisted that his work T-shirts needed ironing, soon put him right on that one!

I've always hated it, and on board there's so little room for superfluous things like ironing boards! I don't have a dryer either. I just let things dry outside as much as possible, fold them carefully and stack them high! That way, everything gets 'pressed' :)Vallypeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08309284606572565277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-86847969486733799.post-81676655861585816572011-09-23T10:26:06.547+01:002011-09-23T10:26:06.547+01:00Sounds like fun!
