Our new flat has a fridge, it has heating, it even has a hinged front door. But the one thing that it doesn't have is a washing machine. I figured I would just wear my clothes for as long as possible, until I could stand the stench no longer, and then just biff them out and buy new ones. But really, that is just a bad idea, and expensive. So today I am proud to announce that I did my first ever load of laundry by hand. That's right, by hand. We purchased a small tub and some eco-friendly, skin-friendly laundry detergent from Asda and then I went to work. It was fairly painless to be honest, almost relaxing, and very satisfying. We will see how long it takes for the novelty to wear off.
So do we have many readers? Please leave a comment if you are reading our blog. I do like an audience.

Explain how "wearing your clothes for days at a time until they reek and almost fall off" is any different from the two weeks you spent at our house.
Surely there's a launderette nearby? I think you should find out, there can be potential for some comedy launderette action.
Have you been to any pubs yet?
Laura and I read the blog for sure, we are eagerly awaiting the next instalment. Dom
Hey Heather and John! Yes, I read, I enjoy, but where are the pictures?? Sounds like the two of you are having a good time. And on behalf of Heather, I thank you for washing your clothes.
Dude, I remember days not too long ago where wearing unwashed clothes for days on end wasn't exactly uncommon!
I'm glad you guys have found a place - can we crash in April when we come over for shows :-)
