Clayton Laundry remembered.
:engsmil: My Father worked at Clayton Laundry in the seventies, his nickname
was Mack, he was the motor engineer in charge of maintaining the vans etc, anyone remember him, or worked at the laundry, at that time we lived in Pickup St. It was a great job and good place to work at, we were
the best dressed family in town.

So that is where my suits and shirts ended up.

Re: Clayton Laundry remembered.
I worked at the TSB in Clayton and your Dad was probably one of our customers. I think Clayton Laundry had a holiday savings club with us.

My father robbed that bank along
with many others, not with violence I mighn't add, he was a gentleman.

Re: Clayton Laundry remembered.
If I recall the way the bank used to bung charges on willy-nilly I rather think the boot was on t'other foot.

Re: Clayton Laundry remembered.
My mum worked at Clayton laundry for a while, sometime in the eighties I think. Still remember the night it burned down - half of Clayton were out, some in their jim-jams watching, a lot in tears.

Do you know AccMad, hey that's a good angle, I never received a penny
for entertaining Clayton that night, not that i'm a pyromaniac. my mate Sid beat me to it.
