Bufger - good luck with the house - hope it all goes well.

Ddraig - Seems daft to start them back at the end of a week doesn't it? Just count down the mintues to Monday

Lost2 - Still quiet here - mainly as mine don't tend to surface much before midday


Had a decent nights sleep for a change - DH was zombied on diazepam so although he was still having bed shaking muscle spasms, he actually slept through them.

Need to chase the builders/letting agents up today - I've still got no utility room floor, no washing machine,kitchen units in the dinning room and half the kitchen in the living room...not really ideal.

Think today might be a day for getting pro-active with everyone who's been mucking us about.....heads will roll :rotfl:

Yeah. Thank goodness it's Friday. This has been a pretty carp week in df land. Bank holiday weekend was good catching up with family then found out on Tuesday landlord is selling house and we will be given our 2 months notice. Added to not having a job (still) and being signed off by the doctor, and having to start counselling soon - it's just all a bit much.
Off to job centre this morning and then I have to arrange a flat to view - it's just so expensive and we are unlikely to get a garden (that's line drying out) and a lot are unfurnished (that's furniture to buy then) - looks like we'll be in a worse area, paying 50 a month extra (at least) plus all the furniture costs and the credit checks, inventory checks etc. :mad:
Anyone got this weekends winning lottery ticket? :rotfl:

Morning all.

Good luck Bufger!

DF, that's pants about your landlord selling up. Maybe it's time to start looking at freecycle? Do you know anyone with a garage you can store things in till you move?

Does anyone know how to stop a washing machine making clothes smelly? Loads often come out smelling horrible, it's like a mouldy cheese/sick kind of smell, so they need to be washed again. I've checked the powder tray and that's clean, so I don't know what else it could be.

Have you got any other filters you can take out and clean (sometimes there's one at the front for catching fluffy bits)? I would try running the machine empty on the hottest temperature with some vinegar in (where you would put the washing powder and fabric conditioner) - that can help to clear it out. If that doesn't work then you might need someone to pull it out and see if there's a blockage or gungy stuff in the pipes!

Oh - good morning all and good luck Bufger!

Still incredibly tired today, can't wait to get through work and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

Ames

I've no idea about filters! I'll try the vinegar thing now.

Bufger

Thanks everyone, i'll keep you posted.

DF, sorry to hear its all happening at a bad time for you. 2 months can be a long time to get stuff sorted in though, you could have a new job and somewhere to live sorted by then so keep your chin up!

Lucifa, good luck with the job. I had a similar thing when i started my job - when looking at my status it said i had been accepted but when ringing them up they said they may not have enough positions! they eventually sorted it out 2 weeks later.
