How do you folks dry your towells,swimming cossies etc?We used to hang them on the guy lines but i imagine this would be frowned on these days.Even on the inside of the tent there is nothing to hang things from.
I used to create an extra short line under the canopy, using the top pin of the front pole and an eyelet destined to bind the tent-door on, or sometimes the little hook for keeping the outside cover of the door-window. This way towels and waterproofs would be drying (slowly) under the canopy during rain.
When the kids were very young I used to create a line by using two poles of an old tent: guylines and top line. Very handy. Normally however there always will be one or more a trees/branches near, or sometime a fence, and i would create a line between top pin and tree or fence, or between this top pin and the rack on the trailer. Or between branches of the same tree.
There's always some way to attach one or more lines.
Lots of people still use the guylines. Also drapped on windbreaks, the car, chairs etc. as well as a few people that have those portable rotary driers.
I normally only take a few washing line pegs. I just hang the odd towel or two from the tent canopy. That should do the trick if its only cozzies and towels your drying. Not too many at once, mind!
i always take a washing line and pegs for swim stuff and towels ect. usually there is somewhere... trees, fence ect to tie it to to dry stuff, i have even used my porch poles as a line prop when the wet towels were drooping onto the ground!
always use to hang mine on the guy lines with a clothes peg and also like above on the car wind break etc i sometimes take my small underware washing line dryer it clips just aboyut anywhere and they are only cheap does'nt hold the towels but its great for costumes socks tea towels etc
