    Lol so bearing in mind holidays, days when you're out of the house and/or there is no washing up you're potentially set until about October 2013 :rotfl: :T


    And if I take into account youngest DD and toddler grandson are moving out, so it will just be me here.........

    Mmmmmmm.......

    Possibly they will last even longer :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I have to laugh as OH has just asked if he can have a bar of chocolate from MunniMart. I said he could so long as he gave me 50p - 'But I don't have 50p', to which I replied 'well you can't have one then'. He looked really sad :(and then after a little think said 'could you lend me 50p then please' - lmao:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    My DH has just walked in and checked out the ROSSPA delivery - very excited about the Ste!!a and Peanuts but when I asked him if he'd got any pocket money left his face fell .....aren't we cruel!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooh forgot..Kerri_dfw completely agree with AlwaysHappy about the Panasonic, had ours for over 10 years, replaced the paddle once for less than £10, but it's brilliant, and it always seems to come out top in any poll I've read. AlwaysHappy think I'd opt for a new machine (on a deal, of course) if the bucket costs that much to replace.

    How much do the panasonics cost? Does anyone know? If it's £70 for a new tin, are they really expensive?
