Another CE here:-). I never owned a dryer, and I always linedryed all the laundry in the backyard (and on the reverse for no fads) but out of sight(!) OR on some racks(and the heaters)in the house when rainy, or winter (but out of sight, indoors, too!:-)) and with special care of the smalls, which are always hidden by/between other bigger things:-).
A special laundry room would be really nice and useful but unfortunately no place for it.
I iron like crazy. ALL the stuff, bedclothes, tableclothes, kitchen towels, PJ's, camis, tees, jeans included. Just NOT the socks. And NOT the knickers, either:-).
