    Our BM is nice and quiet, just makes a wee rattle - but the fridge freezer revs up like a plane taking off ! One of these days it's going to end up in orbit.

    Was doing a boil wash today and I thought my washing machine was about to take off when it went into spin mode! Doesn't usually make that noise - well I don't think so!

  • Haha my washer rattles around in its little cubbyhole, last week it wedged itself at such an awkward angle I couldn't shove it back - think it may be trying to escape :confused:

    pull it out & take the 'lid off' it sounds like one of the springs for the balancing weights might have come off.... I am assuming the packaging was removed from inside...that can do it too....

    I got scared by a spider, it ran out from under my fleece and down the side of the sofa. I saw it and screamed - a big proper scream, then went and had a rollie to settle my nerves. Luckily the OH came in, and he rescued me from the spider! Hooray! (I do have very bad arachnophobia though, so I scream at tiny spiders too - however, this isn't as good as the saucer sized spider that I saw in the loo at my mums - luckily I was on the loo! that then followed me. I next saw it by my dad's PC desk - I was on the PC - got a ruler, whacked it, and then the dog ate it)
