I've just loaded the washing machine -using the "quick wash" option. It cuts the wash time by about 20 minutes. To my embarrassment, it was years before I realised what this button did (cuts out a wash & rinse cycle) - so less energy and less water.
I only use the washing machine when the weather looks like it will stay sunny and breezy for the day so that it can line dry. Anything that hasn't dried completely before dusk is moved into the log store (an old car port) to finish off.
I used to have a tumble drier that stood idly in the kitchen for years. When the kitchen was remodelled, I threw it in the skip. The timer was dodgy and it needed repair so didn't want to gift it.

Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without.
