As most will know the CC withdrew the single spin dryers from the laundry rooms earlier this year.

The information leaflets given out by the wardens and the ones you can view online state that it is possible to do a single spin using the washing machines for £1.

However out of the 3 sites that I visited recently 2 of the sites machines cannot do this, Clumber  has 4 washing machines across 2 blocks, none of the machines can offer this.

Sutton on Sea has (I think) 1 washing machine but this doesn't allow a seperate spin cycle. The 2 machines at Carsington Water however do allow members to handwash items then pop them into the machine and select a spin.

If you don't spin items you cannot use the tumble driers as the items are too wet,  given that you are not always able to dry items outdoors this leaves you with no option but to use the machines for a wash at £4 a load.

If like us you tour for extended periods of time, doing frequent hand washes and a spin is a much more practical and less costly way of keeping things clean.

I have emailed the club but to date have not had a reply other than the acknowledgment of my email which I sent 3 weeks ago.

Perhaps the club could give members accurate information on which sites have these much sort after machines.

The wardens I spoke with were unaware of the inaccurate information or that some machines could do a spin cycle.
