Laundrettes

[Ange]

Another vote for the Aylesbury Canal Society Launderette list - we bought it when we moved aboard and it's found us launderettes in very obscure places. Thanks to Keeping Up and Pingu who recommended it in our very early boating days.

 

Eek - came very close to posting a greengrocer's apostrophe!

Before we got our washing machine we had the Aylesbury Canal Society laundrette list and found that a lot of the laundrettes had closed. One omission in many cases was a telephone number for the laundrettes, this would enable one to check if they are still there before trooping off with a load of laundry.

 

So if a list does get posted on here please include a phone number!

Found the one in Atherstone and my washing is doing as I write this!

 

Some lovely buildings in the town!

There is a launderette very close to the canal in Pershore on The Stratford Canal too. It is in the high street

 

Have they moved the canal??...think you mean Avon Navigation... Insert winky emoticon here!!

 

Cheers

They do have lovely buildings Stickleback just dont go there when the Ball Games are on - looks like a place time forgot with everything boarded up, good fun though.

Off topic, but a ball related link. Stay away from the water, Caprifool.

"Mr Carl said that the discovery of one pacu – which is currently undergoing DNA tests to confirm its identity – should not keep Swedish men out of the water." :-)

I can vouch for the Pershore one (on the Avon), used it just last week. Much better machines than the launderette at Ellesmere!

Not for the op, but Loughborough has one in The Rushes, near the basin. It's between a wilkos & a Witherspoons, so that cuts waiting boredom.
