Our local launderette was having it's signage changed today. It has been a launderette for as far back as I can remember (early 1980s), and when the workmen removed the sign there was a much older one underneath, which read...
Jack & Jill's.....Baby wear......Nursery tweeds...
Does anybody have a clue what 'nursery tweeds' might consist of? I'm picturing a smart cot bedecked in Miss Marple style fabric, perhaps with leather patches in the corners, faint smell of dog wafting up, shotgun leaning against the baby changing unit.
