How true! I was going to comment on when they started that laundry number business, and realized that I didn't actually know. I spent two and half years on the Bonny Dick, took three WestPac cruises, and never used the ship's laundry. I had thirty-some sets of underwear, as many towels, sixty pairs of socks, and near a dozen sets of dungarees. You should have seen the Hey Joes running to help me when I came down the afterbrow with two full laundry bags. Didn't cost very much, either.
