Washing clothes abroad tip!

Ok, recently I was in England. I had fun, but the clothes pilled up. And when I counted how much it would cost me at the hotels dry cleaner my heart stopped for a few seconds. So I had a mission: find a laundromat in Birmingham. So I found one, very big, and the prices was soooo cheap, and the building was like american style, so I thought.. this is to gooood to be truth. I clicked on "find us" and found it said : Birmingham, USA...uoppps.. I felt so stupid lol. Any way, I still looked for one on the internet.. and I didn't find ANYTHING... :S So.. ones we went to look for a mosque, then my husbnad went to a foodstore and I was walking because I was bored. and there i seeeeeee A LAUNDROMAT! I found one.. I was SOOOOO happpppy lol.. embaressing happy. 
So I did the laundre, but the problem was now how to dry them.. they will skrink in that shrinking machine (drier). So I had a pile of wet clothes in the hotel... there was a heater so I put the socks there, but the rest of the clothes.. after a few minutes .. I GOT IT !!! lol
