Never. I’m quite picky about things like that. I have this belief that a lot of people are filthy and I wouldn’t want my clothes in there.

You’re putting soap in the machine you know

You can put as much soap in as you like, I’ll stick to washing powder.

But you get what I mean. It’s a cleaning product

They were origionally put in for truckers to use when they’re on a job. Hence them being all over the service stations/truck stops up and down the motorways.

But not in herrington



Must have a small machine marra. All my bedding fits in my washer and it's super king size. Had my duvet in not so long ago.

Sleeping bag I’ve got is massive , prefer to take it to the laundrette and let it have a good swoosh around vs ramming it in the washer - I think we do have a small drum like , noticed my parents was a lot bigger but as all appliances were new when we moved in it’ll do til it conks

I tried to use the one at the jet garage once at 11:30pm on a Sunday due to an emergancy. The thing was in use! So from that I'm guessing they are popular.

You can draw your own conclusions as to what the emergancy might have been.

Proper Herrington locals still use a few rocks down at the Burn.

There's one at Howdon and always thought you'd have to stay there while it's washing or I'd be worried it would stop and open and someone would run off with me undercowies.

Petrol station marra? Did a bit of a double take the first time I went there. Washing me windscreen is one thing, but getting me smalls washed at the same time? Where dee ah wait when bollock naked?

Imagine bumping into Johnny Decka while you wait. That would be a canny conversation.
