Washing Detergent

.....

help... Ive been in Japan for nearly a week now and I'm running low on clean clothes... today is the day I wash my laundry.... but what do i use?

I cant read the packets so how do i know im not going to buy the wrong thing?... i just want normal regular washing powder i dont care about fragrances bio or non i just wanna wash my clothes...

man i must sound really pitiful but im terrified of cocking this up.

I've just got back from the shop and that's exactly the one I bought... they only had that and another one which claimed to be 3 in 1... to me that means 3 times as many risks.

Ive loaded it into the machine.. I should know in about 40 minutes wether or not I'm a completely undomesticated loser or not.

Ive done my whites first, with a few colours but it doesnt matter coz the whites are just towels and ____ i dont care if they go pink... but next comes the dark stuff, im crapping myself.. theres quite a nice shirt there which im quite fond of, dont want to destroy it..

This wasnt really about japanese detergents, this was about me being a mummys boy sent out into the big wide world to do his own laundry.. haha

if there is a donquixote near you... you can find imported stuff ... 100% sure of success with that...
otherwise go to a discount drug store and look for boxes like this


once you find the section ... it will all make complete sense,

Luckily i realised the washing machines where I'm staying are coin operated and require no pushing of buttons... Its worth paying \200 not to have to f*ck around with with all that bollocks.

And just incase anyones interested, they came out in one peice, and I don't think they shrunk. Kudos to me... I'm a big boy now.
