Aaaaarrrrrrggggggg!!!!!!!!!!
My washing machine that I bought in November last year has, quite literally, gone up in smoke on Friday night. It was lucky I was standing next to it and got my OH to see to it before the flames took hold and destroyed the kitchen! It had a 1 yr manufactures guarantee which is now expired. I'm so annoyed, I would expect a…

By their own admission, the sizes they advertise on their website are not the sizes of the shoes themselves. So, when they are delivered, you have to go to all the hassle of sending them back for a refund or…
