Because we don’t own a washing machine, we bring our laundry to the laundromat. Bringing our clothes to the cleaners is H’s task. He’s there so often that he’s developed a good relationship with the employees. The few times I’m there I enjoy the cold airconditioning combined with the scent of fabric conditioner. So cozy! We like the way they clean and press our clothes. See how orderly they are? And man, I love the place’s name. Imagine calling them to have your laundry delivered and hearing a voice on the other end of the line answer, “Hello! Let’s Talk Dirty!” Heehee. It makes me giggle all the time.

Me kc, I do our laundry once a week (with the help of our wahing machine,syempre) and I do the pressing na ren. Eventually, I love doing the laudry kc I love playing with the water pero I hate the pressing.
Hey, the place’s name is cool ha 😀

August 18, 2005 at 2:19 am (19 years ago)i’m just curious lang, how much is a kilo of laundry if washed and pressed? here in cebu we prepay 1000 for 40kg, pero wash lang. 70/kg if wash and press.

August 18, 2005 at 9:19 am (19 years ago)shucks, parang indecent proposal. is the tone and articulation as suggestive? hehehehe
delish
August 18, 2005 at 5:25 pm (19 years ago)hopefully, we’d have a similar place nearby that we can trust, where Jojo and I will live… for heaven help me, i really doubt i’d do our laundry… and it will be the end of the world before he does it for us 😀
Toni
August 18, 2005 at 7:23 pm (19 years ago)diane: true!
linnor: Mahal ang laundry dito. Mga 35/kilo tapos separate cost ang pressing — per piece!
jojo: Hahaha hindi naman.
mec: Yea you gotta find one you can trust. Ito kasing branch na ‘to subok na namin so di kami nagpapalaba somewhere else.

August 18, 2005 at 9:10 pm (19 years ago)just another creative way to add humor (tongue-in-cheek, though it may be) to mundane tasks such as doing the laundry. yes, that scenario would be quite funny. makes me wonder if customers lose their composure when they call the laundromat for the first time.

August 18, 2005 at 9:56 pm (19 years ago)I wonder how many people decide on ‘talking dirty’ instead of just the usual lavanderia?!
bea
August 19, 2005 at 8:20 am (19 years ago)I also love having my clothers laundered. But with a family of 6, mom says ots not practical… sayang.
yeah, i like to Talk Dirty too!!! 😉
Toni
August 19, 2005 at 10:48 am (19 years ago)selina : hahaha that would be a nice thing to discover!
annabanana : static cling! hahaha how cool is that! hey balitaan mo ako sa experience mo with the ORIGINAL orange clean ha 😉
Pao : Sige mamaya!
mare : Ooooh I wonder! LOL!
bea : Oo nga naman, not practical. 2 lang kasi kami and super busy pa and super liit ng living spaces eh so professional laundering is the way to go!

August 22, 2005 at 5:56 pm (19 years ago)Hehehe. Reminds me of Petal Attraction – this flower shop near UP Village. Linnor – I pay 25 per kilo for mine and then for every 5 kilos, 1 kilo free. 65 for the press but you get P 5 back if you return all the hangers.
Toni
August 25, 2005 at 10:33 am (19 years ago)Erik: Hahaha take a photo of that flower shop!!
