So what happens if some of the washing line goes PING! and the outer line breaks?

You discover how to go about buying new line, installing it, and remembering Girl Guide knots so you can use a clove hitch (the rabbit comes out of the hole....).

And then the weekend washing can proceed.

It is a Hills Hoist clothesline (great Australian invention) and it's amusing that the necessary equipment ended up being so patriotically coloured.
