@CiaraNi I rather like windymill, though that also implies there should be waterymill.
-
@the_roamer Lady Joan Mastodon and me and you, so. We'll keep the word windymill alive.
#windymill is the future.

@davidtheeviloverlord @cassana There's a fairytale in that, one of the traditional ones, dark with a macabre ending.

@CiaraNi Windymill is lovely. In Scotland, standing washing lines are called "whirlygigs", which I also love.
@icecolbeveridge Whirlygig is a great word. I've only known it in the sense of a carousel, like a fairground attraction, which isn't called for much in general conversation. I love the idea of it being a regular household word. And I can't believe the rest of us have been hanging out the washing on a boring old 'rotary line' when we could've been saying 'whirlygig' all along.
