Watching the video in reply #2 has made me realise just how inefficient my kitchen-come-laundry room is, I must rearrange it at once to make my washdays easier!!

 

Loving these videos... my parents live in a house not dissimilar to the one in the Hoover video, the small room off their hallway which houses the boiler, tumble dryer and dogs beds is the remnants of an old scullery, complete with pulleys on the ceiling for the hoist-them-up drying maiden!

Hi Gary,

Not sure there would be enough hours in the day if we all got together but we would give it a good try !!

With regards to bringing some machines, not sure how many i can fit in my A-Class but can bring some literature which is always interesting to look through.

Hope we can all get together in the Spring.

Cheers
Keith

Hours in the day

Well you are spot on there Keith, even a 4 day meet at mikes was not enough so yes it could be a bit lively and cramped, well thats fine but bring whatever you can we all have things to contribute

Hopefully see you in the spring

Gary

Ho my, the Hoover single tub has bought back some memories, my mother used one for many years, it was a later model with a pump W3590 I think, and it was my job on returning from school to empty and dry out the machine, I would deliberately forget to put the lid on and the Pulsator would splatter the water all over the place, I can still smell the soapy water and it was always very dark grey after washing my dads work overalls.

Unfortunately this was one of the machines that took a ride on the back of a skip lorry accompanied by my Hotpoint Liberator, thanks dad, I will never forgive….

Next meet up, maybe I can make it this time around, now I work Monday to Friday.

More Tumble Wash

I cam across this audio clip in a radio documentary last year about the use of early electronic music. I only wish I had the proper video to go with it.

Mike, I hope you dont mind me borroing some of the images from up the thread



And thanks again to Robert for this great new utility

Coronation Street

I tried to include this as part of my video above but Windows Live Movie Maker was not having it.

Hilda bought the machine from Renee Bradshaw, the owner of the shop next door to where they lived.

The tumble wash can be seen at 6.18 in the video.
