I dry our clothes inside our home. It has little to do with our neighbor's meat smoking, which I am unsure if they do, but everything to do about efficiently drying our clothing without chemicals or energy.

I recommend the Ikea Mulig drying rack, holds a twenty pounds of dry clothes. Maybe 30lb wet.

We have a high ceiling in our family home and my dad installed a clothes line on a pulley system.

"Ah, a man of culture, i see" must be your line every time you see the clothesline and him together.

Which is a fair statement, as hanging your laundry in the courtyard, the palazzo, the ancient ruins, is something humans have been doing since the agricultural revolution at least, ie when our non- nomadic culture developed and changed radically.

OMG! I have seen those in British tv shows. I want one so badly. I have high ceilings in America and I very much want a British cast iron pulley ceiling dryer.

The floor based IKEA rack is still good, but I have Victorian dreams.
