Woman sparks debate after claiming we've all been hanging out washing wrong

What is this madness?

This woman has sparked a heated discussion online after claiming we've all been hanging our washing out wrong...

Instead of placing the pegs at the top of the clothes on the line, she says the correct way to do it is to peg them together along the side of the clothes!

"Always done it this way" she wrote on Facebook.

"I think this is the right way to use clothes pegs, not putting them on the top. What do you think?"

The replies came in thick and fast, many calling the woman nuts!

"I think you're insane" bluntly wrote one person.

"They would end up all bunched up from the wind and not dry. Pegging to the line makes them stay in place and dry properly and evenly." pointed out another.

"Each to their own, but funny how in 2020 - they are now telling all previous generations of people who have hung out their clothes to dry how they have done it wrong... Oh so funny." someone else said.

What do you make of the idea? Will change to this way of doing it, or keep things as they are?
