    I might have asked this before in which case I apologise, but...................

    Does any one know of a proper, western style, dry cleaners within Thailand?

    I have a number of suites, some inherited from my father, that are rather good, that I want to keep.

    No, of course I don't wear them very often but I want to get them professionally cleaned and pressed and such a service seems not to exist north of Chiang Rai.

    So, the latest plan is to get an address, contact, telephone number or whatever, use Kerry or some equally proficient logistical mob to ship said suits to the dry cleaners then get them shipped back.

    There's a new Kerrys office opened up in our little village and they seem most accommodating.

    Logistics sorted, Dry Cleaners missing.

    Chiang Rai has proved a no no in the past,

    We took the kit to the lady, lovely lady, went back the next day to be told it would take a while as it hadn't dried yet!
    My, how we laughed.

    Any advice gratefully received..

    Do you know anyone in Bangkok you could send them to and then have the place Norton suggested collect them from there?

    We finally found a good dry cleaner here in Chiang Mai, Washy Mashy on Huey Kaew Rd.. I don't think they actually do the dry cleaning on site, but they do the pre-treating of the spots and soiled areas and then send the clothes off somewhere, maybe even to BKK, judging by how long it takes for them to return our drycleaning. Yes, I think language ability is a big plus. They want to know what caused the spots, why we're drycleaning the item, etc. They're really good at removing the stains I get on the hems of my skirts from riding on the Chiang Mai song thaews.

    Sorry closed in 2014.

    But another possibility is '
    dry cleaning service at the Orchid Hotel next door to KSK'.
