My telescope is not a washing line!

My 5' 2" wife would find the top of the tube of my 14" f4.5 Dob inconveniently high to reach.

Caught my missus hanging her clothes on my heq5 mount, warned her next time its a public flogging and her debit card is cut up. Think that will do the trick.

My conservatory looks like a telescope shop but Hubby would never hang the washing on my scope.

Or should that be Hubby would never hang the washing.

I hang out the washing here, could never happen :?\

Her line was if its too cloudy to hang washing on the line then its too cloudy for 'telescoping' thus would be fine to hang washing over the beloved scope.. I think the point was missed!

Maybe your wife was being thoughtful and trying to keep dust off your scope?

Now I keep mine in the spare box room on an old single bed. I cover it with an old blanket to keep the cold out, it get's freezing in that room at times. I check on it from time to time to ensure that it is safe and hasn't had any unwanted insects crawl into any open orifices.

Now my scope, well that sleeps next to me in my lovely warm double bed wrapped in silk sheets. Honestly the wife really don't mind the swap.

That has got to be THE funniest reply ever

I had to read it 2 times, but then it got me

Maybe she was just angling for him to do the washing and drying himself, eh, Sarah?

Best leave the dew bands on when you leave her in the house alone on washday lol

Someone used the word ballistic. This does not have the thermonuclear ring that I would require in such a situation.

Thankfully my dob is too tall for anyone to hang clothes on, and the sct is in a box even higher then that. Anything that is much over 5ft high in my house is safe.
