And. When was the last time you were asked-
"Dad? Where's my washed jeans?"
This weeks' washing was ready in the laundry basket. Nearly all of it was ready to GO!
As I lifted the lid to load up the 7kg capable washing machine, there was a flurry!
"Daddy! Wait, hang on, I forgot last night!"
The plan is to wake up as early as possible on a Saturday, head down to the combined space saving but ergonomically-not designed bathroom-laundry industrial complex, and do a weeks' washing. In one morning.
However. If one is awoken later in the day, and it's raining all weegen, one is are buggered.
It is all dragged out until the next day. Or the dryer rule is invoked, breaking the ubiquitous and /or customery "Quick, it's raining, gotta get the clothes back of the drying line again!"

Wet weegen?
Not really, working on the painting job may have distracted one...
No real excuse, it was just forgotten I suppose.
MARVINED!!
And then one finds out that-
THERE IS NOT ENOUGH washing detergent for four loads of washing!!!
Doubly MARVINED.
AND THEN ONE FINDS OUT-
Not enough pegs to hang all this self inflicted work out to dry!
Can it get worse?
Yes.
Thanks heaps.
Well that's settled.

A late afternoon exchange prior to this:
"Where's my shorts for school?"
No respect, just a demand.
Put away? In the basket still? I don't know... I cannot sort all the worlds problems out!
But now we all know why there was no shorts or work duds- drying in the washing machine...

And
Why do the three of them wear SHORTS in WINTER?
The three of them!
Winter uniform for schools is long black pants- not jeans, not chinos, not dress slacks, not tracksuit pants, not swimming stuff, not
