<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Hey Aw.org gang! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I can’t believe its a year today since Laundry Lab’s was launched on “Youtube”. When this little wonderful site came in to my life, what’s it called again? Oh yeah that’s it, Automaticwashers.org. Boy did I have hours of fun, reading through the forums, looking through some stunning photo collections and personal video’s via Youtube. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">The one thing that was lacking were adverts, which were hard to get hold off. Before The Laundry Lab was formed, I roughly had about ten UK Laundry Adverts which wasn’t many. As many of you agreed, you’d spend hours on end hoping to find that one particular advert, then end up disappointed when you’ve spent half the night searching for it when really it was past your bedtime. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Something needed to be done I thought. Before I became a member on Aw.org. I gave myself a challenge to find all those hidden and forgotten adverts. Better still why not create a page and make it a History Museum purely on “UK Laundry Adverts” and make it assessable for everyone! Initially I wanted to create a website, but the knowledge of building one failed me. So Youtube was my next option. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">During those long few months, the endless days and nights, I searched high and low. Searched places that were unthinkable which took me by surprise. Slowly I had enough adverts to start The Laundry Lab Page, I added the little logo, edited the video's to the best way I can and here we are a year later celebrating The Laundry Labs first anniversary! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">The support and gratitude I have received from everyone have been amazing, and along the way I have made friends. I really can't thank you all enough, not because I wanted everyone's appraisal but simply because everyone on Automaticwashers.org inspired me to give something back to the AW.org community! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">So to get this party started, I have included this weeks: </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">“THE TOP TEN SPINS OF THE WEEK!” </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">(Usually held on Sundays, but to mark the event, I pulled it a day earlier) </span>

 
<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Also, there won’t be no video of the week this week! "Oh Hass…I was kinda looking forward to that!" </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Well, that’s is where you guys come in! It won’t be a be a party without nobody getting involved. So here’s what I would like you guys all to do. </span>
<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Pick one favourite UK Laundry advert from “The Laundry Lab”, which you can find on the link below and you can either post the link or embed the video! To get the ball rolling, here’s my all time favourite advert. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">1987 - Ariel Automatic Liquid [Mother In Law] </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Disco@ The Launderette </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Now before I wrap it up, I have also included the demo of Disco@ The Launderette. The demo dedicated to everyone on AW.org. I apologise as the demo is not fully finished yet. I had to be at home in London for a while due to family matters. The Demo was due to be completed for today, to mark the 1st Anniversary, but life had other idea’s I hope you all enjoy it, as I’ve enjoyed recording it. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">But for now, you all have fun. I shall look forward to seeing all your favourite ads! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">No slacking now guys! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">This is a celebration! Hehe, I don’t want to party all on my own. </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Spreading the love round! </span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Hass. </span>

Hehe yeah I agree with you Guy, everyone is talented in there own little ways. That's the beauty of this place :)

@ servisslimline hehe so the first person to notice hehe, my favourite bit of the song, glad you like it! Thanks for the little feed back much appreciated. I thought choosing a favourite ad would be hard for some, but that doesn't matter.
 
Well it was simple really, just for this occasion of the song and a one off (which I don't get in the habit of doing) I recorded the sound of matchboxpaul's video Hotpoint Super Electronic De Luxe L.E [95622]. I wanted to include this because my mum had this same very machine and it was a little throw to my childhood. I converted the file to wav, edited the bit I wanted and used it for the intro.

Looking back on it now, it has a sentimental value for me, because that sound alone represents the past and present. Before Aw.org came into my life, Paul was one of the first guys I ever spoke too from AW.org. So its also a little nod to him as well, because the video's alone brought back a lot of memories for me.

That is the real reason why that awesome Hotpoint sound is in there. lol sorry if this post came across emotional.
 
Woohoo

happy birthday to you
