Dirty water flowing back into dishwasher - have I fixed it?

One other possiblilty is that e.g. heavy rain had flooded the drains, raising the water level.  I've seen that happen during a deluge where water started issuing forth from a washing machine.  Anyway just academic.  Can I ask what package you used to colour the components?  It's a great effect

Very precise, too! Really useful.

I'm a bit old school so whereas most people I know use Adobe Photoshop I use Corel Photo-Paint.  I masked around the photo by hand, made a copy of the masked area and filled it red, then set the opacity of that layer to 25% revealing the original part of the image beneath it.  Repeated for the purple pipe (I actually made it blue, but it ended up purple when faded out to  25% opacity).

Fab. A good, steady hand
