    Ah, there's my trouble...I'm T-Total ;)

    Today not going as planned. I put the washing machine on and the bearings have failed on the drum half way through the wash - to make matters worse, I let it run to the end of the cycle and the MASSIVE vibrations during the 1200 rpm spin have buckled the drum! It's now oval shaped not round and doesn't go round without a helping hand!

    Then I put everything in the tumble drier, disappeared over a friends for a coffee and watched the clouds roll in while I was gone! HOW, JUST HOW?!

    If you're handy, let me know the model number as my mate Tom runs his own white goods parts business!

    Can we fix it?

    No, but I've got a hammer and the gin!!

    Frustratingly, I'd normally give something like this a go, but with my back in the state it is I'll have to call someone in. Lovely, always when income is limited!

    Although we're a million miles away, if you need some help just shout!

    As an aside, I'm at Rupert's viewpoint, listening to Dolly Parton on radio 2, looking at how beautiful England is! Pic to be added in a bit.....!
