[mattywashboy]

All I can say is wow guys! I remember when I visited Al a couple of summers ago he was just getting the plans mapped out and organised. Seems like yesterday, How time flies!

Looks fantastic and well done all for getting hands on!

Best wishes to everyone

Oh Mike

What a great weekend and Al, what a wonderful space to spend time with the best of friends, what fun and friendship there is to come. These gatherings are always backed up by such generosity and hard work before the event, thanks to you all, as all of us I'm sure if only we lived nearer to each other, what could be achieved? As Mike said, from the first `wash ins' we've all helped where we can, so I was pleased to be asked to help cook the meal on Sunday, the whites were intended as just a bit of fun that I thought would also offer up some stubborn stains to wash out. Another great selection of photos as always and lovely to relive these memories of this weekend and other times through previous threads.

I also

thought that was a great photo of Darren and Steve 5/7 post 31. Steve and Mike, thanks for hotpoint toploader photos, seeing how easily they come apart is a real lesson for me, as I had not collected any of these, I've never really worked on much more than the pump, mind I'm still happy to leave these to you Steve.

Thanks

Mathew

A Big Thank You

For another great weekend of good company and excellent food. The design and layout of the new facilities and the new kitchen/diner are stunning. Looking forward to the new time.

ps Glad to see my favourite top loader up and running, I couldn't believe how quickly Steve had it stripped down and then back together.

Holiday weekend

I can hardly believe that a week has gone by since I was saying "so long" to the last of my friends leaving after the weekend. Thanks to everyone who attended and put so much work in getting the additional space set up and the machines in place.

And just in case anybody wondered, the original washer room is still there - awaiting some repainting and more machines, hopefully with a larger variety of appliances - hopefully it will be ready in a couple of months or so.

Great to see John (combo52) again and also to meet Ken, it is so enjoyable to be able to share our knowledge of different machines from our respective countries.

And thanks also to everyone for another wonderful weekend - its the machines that brought us together, it is the fun, laughter and friendship that keeps us there.

Can I ask what the older Miele pair are, and what the dryer sitting atop the newer Miele is?

Just goes to show, an outwardly unpromising house can still be made into something special with a bit of inspiration.

TI Creda

Brilliant pics Mike.

I could easily watch those classic Creda made Washers in action forever.

Another Masterpiece!

That kitchen island is the coolest, longest, most enviable one I've ever seen. ALL the rooms are so long--I love it. With so much wonderful equipment, Al, you could open a hotel. Would die to see the Spiral Dasher in action, you Big Teaser you, Mikey! Acknowledgement and gratitude for the long hard labour of love & fun you guys share with the whole world here. It is amazing!
