Cleaning Muddy Caving Gear

[Caver Keith]

Mrs E. has banned me from using the washing machine to clean my caving stuff so I thought I'd give this a go.

Mrs. C. made me get rid of the cement mixer!

Into the washing machine they go.

Can I see a video of it on fast spin please?

Mrs. Mrodoc feels the same way Keith. I told her about this and am getting an earful!

I think it's genius. Proper redneck technology!

I use an old washing machine I'm the garden. One or two cold rinse cycles cleans most kit and spin cycles don't usually matter. Water supply is from hose pipe and drain waters garden.

I understand that this is off topic but am in the process of building a garden railway. Here's part of it.

And if you want to see more of it then there are some videos here.

I sometimes wonder if an old fashioned dolly tub and posser would be useful for caving gear.
