My in laws treated me to a new wm - the idea was to get a quiet one so that when dh came home from the hosp he wouldn't be disturbed and it also has the medic cycle for extra hygiene. Even when we found out he wouldn't be coming home, they still insisted, bless them :A
It is a fab machine, I have a 30min cycle for just freshening, and even a 14min light rinse cycle - I washed dds nursery pumps on this they came out fab, and not overdone and ruined like a full wash would.
Needless to say, thanks to all the sickys today, it has been on overtime. I have a huge pile of clean wet stuff ready for the line, hope it's dry tomorrow.
I'm absolutely done in, those tots have just wanted to sit on me all day, had one or other on my hip whilst sorting sicky washing yuk :eek:Bossymoo

Greenbee - what hoover did you get? I'm fed up with mine too, so maybe when I get offered a job I'll splash out. I have to hold the cable in a certain position for it to work, which is a real pain considering you have to push it back and forth.
Hope you feel better soon.

Leak is stopped - carpenter's dad came over and sorted everything. He will fix the pipe tomorrow and they'll leave the boards up for a few days so that I can run the heating and make sure there are no problems. His dad also cleaned up the sitting room, and even offered to take the towels home and wash them, but I declined as I don't like washing powder.poohbear59 wrote: »Time to start on dinner: fish pie and brocolli.

greenbee I hope the water leak is soon stopped.
Can I come over for fish pie and broccoli. I'm having poppadums, cheese and frozen yogurt...
That would work - my KS is in two bits, and the small bit goes in my ancient 5kg machine, so the big bit should be fine in thereGreenbee... it fits a 9tog KS and 9 tog SKS in but my 10.5 KS didn't go in
Not that I want it to die. I've had enough excitement for the moment. 0 -
