Washing machine sorted. A leaky hose. Now I have 4 weeks worth of washing to do. Me happy.

Hooray! Good weather for a wash-a-thon.

you had 4 weeks of undies? I couldnt go 2 weeks, and even then wouldnt make it that far in socks.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 8 points 6 months ago

Well. Undies were the last things that I washed and sometimes I didn't even bother to put some on after showering. It's good to let bits breathe occasionally.

Ditto

I can last 5 days without washing, but I wash everything after each use, regardless of dirt levels (I'm a very sweaty person). I could make it 7 comfortably reusing things as necessary. Although opposite to you, I've actually got about 3 weeks worth of socks, and would be okay reusing them once most of the time

I would just start hand washing necessary clothes.
