They're not as cheap as they used to be though - mine's £32 at the minute, so certainly out of the "grab it" price range and into the "think about it/research" range.0 -

It was a training tool, definitely learnt more than by just reading about processes. Certainly wasn't easy pulling together the powerpoint slides, and trying to get people working as a team!

Darks
Then woollens and delicates ( light and dark of course)
The hand wash...... No colour separation. ( unless masses and masses to do)
Dog washing is not divided, nor are cleaning stuff/ teatowels0 -
