    Morning all

    Raining here, two loads of washing spread round indoors.

    Vacuumed through downstairs and did the stairs. (Did the kitchen yesterday).

    Made some Easter biscuits and a coffee sponge. The sponge is cooling on the rack and the dog is very kindly sitting in the kitchen watching it to make sure no-one steals it ;)

    This computer sort out is driving me mad. Good job ex is on MSN and I can ask him what the hell things are - can certainly tell he is an IT person as there are all sorts of programmes that I don't know. This computer is going to run SO much faster with all his stuff off it and everything sorted out :rotfl:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
  • emmb,

    I don't have a bosch my auntie does - I have had at least 3 machines in the time she has had hers (although for sure I do more washing :rotfl: )

    http://www.johnlewis.com/230443521/Product.aspx this one looked quite good - when I googled the model number it brought up this http://www.dixons.co.uk/martprd/product/sku/837562?camp_id=ppc_washers which with a quick glance looks to be the same machine...

    Indesit and Hotpoint are the same company now so if you don't like hotpoint ;)

    eta - article here http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=211 was written by a very helpful chap who posted it on the in my home board...

    eta (again) this might help http://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=191

    Now I must stop drooling over new washing machines and go clean the bathroom!!!
  • pigpen - men think the Housework Fairy cleans it all up - I am not a Man Basher....but....I think they come in three catergories-
    1. Does Nowt
    2. Does ONLY really obvious things (staring him in the face) oh and requires a medal for doing it :T
    3. Complete Cleaning Nut
    I am glad I don't have a 3, because I'd feel on edge all the time...

    I couldn't have a 1.

    So I shouldn't grumble for having a 2, but that doesn't stop me :rotfl: :rotfl:
