Well the good news is that the gutter is fixed, that is we have a nice new white gutter ‘cos the old one actually couldn’t be fixed but I was kind of expecting that. Only problem is that the sparkling white gutter now shows up how badly the rest of the conservatory needs cleaning!
So to the other white bads, the washing machine thankfully is fixed and working, it is churning away as I write. The tumbler is another story and here is the abridged “U” certificated version.
The man arrives takes it apart drinks tea and tuts, needs a new drum and a couple of other bits, will have to order them, we will let us know when the parts are in.
Not too long and message on the answer phone, parts are in man can come and fit them. Man comes, drinks tea and fits the drum and other parts, demonstrates drum turning and no more grating noise, good-bye.
Put wet washing in tumbler, all turns, all heats, no noise but the floor floods!!!
Phone man, oh dear, must need a pump now, will order one.
Few days go by, phone call, man can come to fit pump.
New man comes, other man’s company gone bust, new man looks at tumbler, drinks tea and tuts, new drum not been fitted properly, takes it out, takes out fuse, machine is dangerous cannot be used, has to be condemned!
Probably be a while for the paperwork to go through, then have to get new machine, will be in touch!!
I’m dreaming of a wet washing Christmas!
