My Beautiful Laundry Pet.

This is the continuing story of White Goods World and the people who struggle to get a tumble drier back into their small provincial lives. O come on, somebody must remember Peyton Place, it was the first soap I ever watched, back in days of tiny black and white T.V. and before Dorothy Malone passed her conical underwear on to Madonna!

And talking of soap, soap powder, washing and drying and yes here we are back with the saga of the tumbler, today I give you “Tumble Down All Our Days” the season finale.

So the vouchers did not arrive, surprise, surprise, so on Friday I get on the phone to the complaints department, explain the whole sad story, my call may be recorded and will probably cost me £1 a minute, Oh joy!

Nice man explains that actually they have no way of knowing when the voucher was posted and in fact if it has been, as it doesn’t show on the system, all he can say is that the tumbler was condemned and vouchers assigned and he can verbally give me the codes over the phone so I can just go the store. Thank you, I won’t ask why the person could not have given out that information 3 days ago because I am paying premium rate for this call!

So off to the shop and finally a helpful man and lady sort it all out with the voucher code numbers and we can pick our new machine to take home, remember a tumbler should be for the life of it’s warranty not just for Christmas!

And bright and early this morning the new addition was delivered, well wrapped and packed, but I’m not counting my tumblers until it has done a full load successfully!!!

Oh and guess what came in the post at lunchtime, yes the vouchers, dated over a week ago!!

May your towels always be fluffy and your sheets static free.
