The Thousands

Before homes had laundries and landlords had the good sense to introduce the communal coin-op variety, the humble laundromatte was the place to be seen on a Saturday.

Nowadays, a visit to the Laundromatte-cum-Laundrette has sunk pretty low on the Sydney social scene and hanging out with your imitation bonds undies isn’t really considered all that cool.

**The Washing Done not only boasts washing, dry-cleaning and alterations services but also comes equipped with boredom busters to aid the prevention of any unwanted ‘undie’ conversations. No need to discuss your white wash when you’re kicking back on a comfy couch reading the paper [with an ace coffee from next door] or whilst you’re using the net service to check your facespace.

And if any of those options don’t appeal to you, take the ‘Double Bay’ drive-through and do a drop-off around the back.
