A word of warning re washing/drying
July 02, 2009, 12:45:51 pm

Have just got my hoodie out of the tumble dryer and some of the rear screen print has been removed and the hoodie drawcord is trashed.

I would suggest hang-drying to be safe.

Are you supposed to wash climbing kit?  I don't think it would smell right if you did.....

Getting stuff chalky is the equivalent of using washingpowder on it.

(tomtom, I actually had the 12" of that Street Machine track! Might still be in a loft somewhere).

I have two! (I had one originally, and saw the other for 50p and couldnt resist...) Its a quality sleeve - makes me smile! They've not seen daylight for a few years mind.. though I just found "streetdance" on Spotify & been whistling along to it  ;D

All I can recall about it is a whistling bit in the music I used to really like. And the video.

Never saw the video - but having two copies meant some ace double decking could be had on the whistling...



Good old Youtube, just found it... nearly pissed my sides! Especially the caps and white gloves bit... superb,...
