A new what-I-did-today thread

Not much water in it and I did open the door.
I've found the number of a local washing machine repairer and will ring him early am (if I remember) in the meantime I will ask angel if I can finish it off in her machine when she returns from work.

I still find it odd how little things like yhis throw me and make me feel weepy and inadequate. Even though I know I'm quite capable of dealing with silly things like this

Note to self " For heavens sake woman! Stop whining and get on with reading Thursdays files!)

Oh , and keep away from GN you're getting addicted!,

It is the little things that finish you off. The big things can be dealt with.

Bl***y machines! They just gang up on you when you least expect it. Give it a kick from me too, I hate it when they "let me down" - feeling your pain!

Hmph!

Actually if you don't see me posting, look for a new poster called Hmph
I think it suits my personality.
Otherwise I'll be Calamity Jane or Grumpy!

Can I just say jeni that, over the past few days you've said a few things that have had me in stitches; you're on top form, woman..keep posting, it's good for my mental well being ...

But tegan you should know by now that I'm a very serious person! No hilarity in my life. I'm very staid and sensible.

soop - your grandson is so lucky! First class tickets to Barbados! Are they coming back as well?

Open-ended, anno...so he can fit the visit inbetween terms.

Brought Theseus home from hospital! He has demonstrated climbing stairs, and is now nodding off over the rugby.

A great big than you to everyone for supporting us with such affection and some excellent advice and encouragement.

And three cheers for the NHS!

Glad you've got him back Ariadne. First couple of days back with DH was a bit of a trial so look after yourself.

Well done

Well I've read all of next weeks files.
Given up on the washing
Put the loaf on in the bread maker
Lost some weight
What am I supposed to be doing that I've forgotten to do?
This will worry me sick as I'm sure I should be doing something.

ariadne , and here's to his speedy and full recovery

jeni, and well done from me! You are very conscientious.

Aw shucks (bashful)

Sitting down with jeni, that's what you should be doing.

Too early! Not til 5.30.
That's in1 hour 35mins and20secs.. 29. 28. 27.

Actually I just realised that if I was still at my boarding school I'd have to be sitting reading the bible or an 'improving ' book.
It was ok when I realised the cover of my PilgrimsProgress was the same size as my Leonard Cottrell book!

jeni Apologies if I'm stating the 'bleedin' obvious', but my machine cuts out like that if I try to wash a thick bath mat on it's own. It throws the machine out of balance.

Have you tried a full load of washing to see if it resets itself?

Just wondered if the baby towel was in there on its own?

It was but its a full size double.
It won't switch on at all. Reckon it's blown it's fuse at the very least. As I did when it happened!

Today, I successfully made a doorstop! I was trying to make a gluten free, malted walnut and mixed seed loaf.

Try balancing the single towel with something else, jeni even if it is a thick one. This happened to my washing machine when I had one quite big item in it and it wouldn't work at all. The man who came to fix it asked me to put something else in with it and hey presto!

The machine will not switch on to let you do any thing.no lights no nothing. It's dead, defunct, deceased!

A Norwegian Blue washing machine...

Quite! It's eight sided!

Poly gon!

By the way, if anyone wants to see what my hares look like . Google James Stockton. They're on his website!

I know it's six sided. But that was before I kicked it!
