odd question about colchester car washes!

[pooter]

hi everyone. I have a strange hankering to take the car to one of those car washes that have big rollers - i think DS may enjoy it and i always feel guilty if i take it to one of those eastern european car wash things. (of course im not going to do it myself - lets not be silly!!)

S0 - is there a roller car wash in colchester, or are they a thing of the past??

Beware all my DC's hated it before the age of 3-4 yrs.

Hated the noise and the rollers coming towards them.Not pleasant to see your child terrified and panicing(sp?) and theres not alot you can do at the time.

Maybe mine are the exception to the rule though,just thought I'd mention it, Pooter.

Isn't there one at Sainsbury's Tolgate? or the BP garages in Marks Tey.

I think there is one at the Esso garage on Ipswich rd

Good luck!

There is definitely one in the ipswich rd esso. We had to push our car in and out of it when it broke down in the que last weekend

DS thought it was amazing (the car wash not the breaking down)

Be careful - scared the pants off of both of my kids until they were a lot older than your DS.

There's one at the Esso on Ipswich Road.

ooh thanks everyone. maybe i will indulge my strange whim on my own for a couple of years!
