Wringing the water out is the hard part; need strong hands even to
keep up with the socks, and my hands ache remembering trying to wring
out jeans...  swinging is a great idea; the bathrooms there could
have handled it, too.

I think hard wringing of clothes also damages them a lot.  I don't use much 
force to wring clothes.  I put them on the clothes line and let them drip.  
My philosophy is: when it dries it dries.  I park my car near to where my 
clothes line is located. When I return home after driving my car I sometimes 
put wet clothes on the bonnet to allow use the waste heat to speed up the 
drying of the clothes.
