  • Well it turns out the author was actually based in Bristol when atempting her challenge. So much is mentioned about Bristol and its 'culture' its too funny. Never knew when I ordered it. I am now half way though her year :j

    Gemmzie~best to do DLA form over 2 days me thinks.

    I can't do it myself beanie, am trying to get CAB or similar to do it, they couldn't see me today though :rolleyes:
    I'm tempted to warn the consultant today that he will be asked for a report, maybe then it won't take too long. It's all been left so late due to this op which was meant to fix it - then I wouldn't have needed to reclaim *sigh* Guess I'm stuck with it.

    Sammy-my washine machine was doing the same thing and I looked it up on the tinterweb and DH managed to fix it! Whoop!

    Saved a bundle and now it's pumping out and not maing scary noises-shall I send him round?

    Man with a van has now been and sorted......turns out along with the usual blocked pump the men who fitted my washing machine never removed the transit things that they should have when they fitted it.....hence the noise!

    However, I have noted that yer man is good with a washing machine and shall phone you next time:D
