dry cleaners

[holloway]

does anyone know if the dry cleaners by co-op is open? i went there at 5:30 yesterday and they were shut.

[Mark]

All non-essential businesses are shut.

[Sue]

I thought launderettes and dry cleaners were included as essential businesses?

Was sure I saw this somewhere yesterday, but maybe it was fake news or I'm mistaken.

Cheers Foxy, should've seen that on the BBC news site. Hope you're well.

Whoda thought. Great I'm going to pop to the dry cleaners to get some suits cleaned.

(That is sarcastic by the way)

Off licences are now also an essential service!

The reason I started this thread was because I put a load of work clothes in for dry-cleaning, pre-lockdown on Saturday morning. I work for the NHS incidentally so I'm still working. The dry-cleaners are still shut.

Do they not have any kind of information displayed for customers?

That's really poor. What are people like you supposed to do?
