Laundry

Post by Pizzalover »

I remember that this had been discussed some time ago but could not find the thread.

Does anyone have an idea about a coin laundry? In other words, where a place where I can do it myself and keep my boxers? There was one on St. 154 but that is gone.

And wash your own underwear in the sink, then they don't go missing. :stir:

Just get a washing machine, save yourself all that expensive items going missing or getting destroyed nonsense . You can get a top-loader for less than $100.

do all my clothes in a bucket while sitting on the toilet. even do this when there is a 20 baht coin laundry 20 meters from the hotel front door. no hanging around in public waiting, no checking the time, can do at own leisure. just do the long soak wash and long soak rinse method as my clothes dont get dirty just smelly. out of the bucket with no wringing straight onto the hanger and hang in the bathroom till no drips then into the curtain rail over the windows. fan gets them dry in a few hours

I m afraid some of my boxers serve as indispensable equipment at some khmer ladies' events, being an item of unrestrained admiration and imagination. I simply would love to walk down the street again here in the quarter without every second woman blushing and whispering to her neighbor.

then learn some self control or rinse the stains out in the sink first if u are too embarrassed to take them to the laundry covered in your "unrestrained admiration and imagination"

I tend to sleep in the nude. Which isn't a bad thing except for maybe on those long flights.
