Loads on here were praising Liverpool for strengthening whilst at the top. Well... Unlike ours last year, this collapse they're having is without any injuries. A couple of defensive injuries in the next few weeks and that'll be their title challenge over. They're already doubting themselves.

Public wash houses were a vital element of life for so many women . That said , these days , most clothes wouldn't survive that sort of boiling or scrubbing . Cotton , cotton , cotton ... But it was the social contact that was so vital for so many .

Many many years ago I worked for Manchester Corporation, Baths and Lauundries department. 1972 it was. .Almost every public baths had a washhouse along with a lot of free standing sites.The ladies, could not get in unless they pre booked a week or so in advance. Then the old manual machines and driers were replaced with automatics, which was my job. It died stone dead when washing machines were made available at reasonable prices. Sorry to go off thread.
