random UK wording question

Ridiculously stupid questions, but I am anal, so here goes: Are there laundromats there? Are the machines called washers and dryers? And do you call it doing laundry?

Those aren't ridiculous or stupid questions at all. It's tiny little things like that which our languages don't share that can throw a fic off for some readers.

Also, I'm saving this post for my own reference. I'm sure I'll have these questions at some point, too. :) Thanks!
