The reason that dryer use is so prevalent in the US is that it is against your bodycorp to hang washing outside. I discussed this recently with someone who had been restricted to a dryer in both Arizona and Texas. And in both places the temperatures are high enough that clothes dry very quickly outside. If you decide to get serious about your Surburban Archeology, I sit next to a couple of stacks of books devoted to building and housing in NZ :-) If NZ follows along US lines where more communities have a bodycorp there may not be the scope to have outside clotheslines or gardens.

It has a jar of dried almonds, but no lovely rabbit wallpaper to look at. I use the pantry to hide from the kids & have a quick coffee.

A magic cupboard full of rabbits wearing dresses and casting their fishing rods into tiny ponds. It looks like an illustration from Enid Blyton's 'The Faraway Tree' or something of that sort. Beautiful. What glorious wallpaper! A magic cupboard full of rabbits wearing dresses and casting their fishing rods into tiny ponds.
