Should we gather that you have experimental evidence to support this hypothesis? Does it work for plastic clothes-pins as well as for wooden ones? (Kids, do not try this at home!)
No. plastic clothespins just melt. And I am not experimenting as we speak. Just something I thought of while being bored.
Nicky- I haven't wet the bed in about 22 years and I am certainly not going to start now.
Being a big fan of the reverse hypothesis I just sat down and split a load of pencils lengthways with a modelling knife and tried to use them to hang out my washing. They actually work! Wow! Unfortunately I've now got pencil lines down either side of me smalls though.
Well, sorta Boxer size, y'know. Not the dog. Or the rebellion.
Hey I suppose you could say my smalls have now been carbonated though! Cool! (the first person to mention snorting those gets a one day suspension from the forum for extreme bad taste however...)
