Pretty sure it is anyway. I've always called it the laundromat. FWIW I've always called the vacuum cleaner the Dyson, and for the record, no one has ever complained about that before.
See I don't personally use a laundromat or a dry cleaner service, but this is all really aside from the point. It's the place where you get your clothes cleaned, either by professional cleaning staff or via the coin washing machines and dryers there. Personally I am content with my own washing machine at home, and am fond of doing the vacuuming too.
I can confirm Jonathan was picking up laundry; or at least this is what I was told at the time. I suppose it is possible he was using the washing machine or dryers (maybe his were broken at the time?) and the staff, being that Brownie is a famous professional football player (dual All-Australian, 3 x premiership player, multiple Brisbane Lions leading goal kicker), television commentator, and radio host collected his laundry from the dryer or washing machine for him. He is well known and liked at this laundromat/dry cleaner. My wife mentioned this too. She thought it was funny that he would spend his very valuable time in conversation with the staff there. Every time I've seen him in my local area, he's been on his mobile phone, and I haven't dared interrupt him yet. I'd feel a bit sheepish as I've never been with my wife at the time I've spotted him. He's very friendly though as I've mentioned.
Anyway I hope that's clarified things for everyone.

Not going to lie. This thought has definitely crossed my mind...

“ ohhh baby!”
Before he moved back to melb, big jonno brown sent his daughter to same school as my kids at the time. Had several covos with him at school assemblies and end of year school awards night. Also on one occasion found his daughter walking along looking lost at the beach and walked her back to where i had seen him as i walked by 5 mins earlier. Very likeable bloke no doubt

Has anyone mentioned Luke Darcy yet? I find the football almost unwatchable when he is commentating.
Constantly trying to talk about the players back story instead of calling the game. IE: Tom Stewart plucked from the local league or Pendles' basketball background. Not just once, but 10 times a game. Every game.
Not only that, he has possibly the worst phrase of any commentator, "don't you just love the way he goes about it?"
Or "I just love the way he goes about it".
When I am watching a game and he is on I find myself yelling at the TV for this flog to shut up.
Has made a good living out of being a terrible TV person.

I'm complaining. The vacuum cleaner is definitely the Hoover. It's even a verb. I bet Dyson isn't

He's welcome to use my washing machine any time he wants.
He'd want to ask someone whose not my wife how it works though. I'm not even sure she knows what it is.
What about Brayshaw?
“Chad Warner - good young player” must have been used about 6 times by him in the Sydney game the last night

AFL great Mark Thompson risks losing home after defaulting on mortgage
Mark 'Bomber' Thompson could lose his property on Rouse Street in Port Melbourne, as he still owes $1.185 million to the National Australia Bank.

Dunno if I think he is much of a commentator tbh
Do like him on the radio though, he is very good at that

I would say that there is a lot of preparation
But alot of the dickheads doing it don't do the prep work. That is bleeding obvious and a big reason why people get frustrated
