Just in case you are thinking of a washer drier combined - I wouldn’t bother. Keep to separate units. I had a washer drier and the washer broke so I had to replace both when the drier still worked perfectly. Ds has a washer drier combined and because it goes straight into drying after a fast spin - everything comes out really creased - when you have 2 separate machines the process of shaking before putting them in the drier reduces creases.January spends - £587.586

I hope you can afford a tumble dryer soon Beanie.
There are exceptions for people who live alone so you should be able to be in a bubble with another household. Is that right? My sister lives alone in Scotland and is in a bubble with her daughter and SIL.

I don't have room for drier anywhere in my flat, I have a Lakeland heated airier, but they are almost the same price as a dryer . Lockdown rules here beanie are very tight and the fines for breaking them are getting bigger. I don't see anyone all week but do have work to keep me busy . I hope you get to source all your requirements, would online be easier ?Take care xLife is an adventure, never stop exploring.5

But neither DS & Gf or my ma is really near me which is slightly difficult.
