Jab one get one free?!
Hope you don't get a reeackshun!
Add one more and it'd be like the MMR, and your doc might get struck off, if he does research on you, and why you have gone dyzlex... dissleckit..... word blind!!!
Crossed fingas!!
and here is this morning's funny happening.
(Can only happen to me.)
I'm sitting at the brekfus table, daydreaming while eating and drinking, waiting while W gets herwself down and onto her brekker.
I had my left elbow on the table with a piece of toast folded in two with marmalade in it.
Suddenly I feel a coldish, sticky "gloop" hit my elbow inside my dressing gown sleeve.
Yep, you guessed it, a bit of marmalade had dropped out and down my arm. till it got trapped between my outer elbow and the material!
Yet again, something that has never happened to me before.
Yep, I know! "That'll teach you to put your elbows on the table!" Granny was right!!!
Yet more incentive, as if I needed it, to get the washing machine back up and running.
It works now but we have discovered it is rather stinky. Not something we are used to. We think it has happend because we leave it standing for 6 months every year. And our water is very hard, unlike the machine in Frogland where the water is soft.
In Frogland it was rthe dishwasher! But we've sussed that now and remedied it.
I've discovered the mucky area is the chute and area surrounding the detergent drawer. Who'd a thort it! So I'll be taking it apart to see if I can get it out and sort it.
Hey ho pass the screwdriver!
Have a good day folks!

Just heard tonight the guy I'm restoring the S2 for who lives in the UK has been seriously ill and they've found an enlarged prostrate he's having tests on Friday...I picked the misses up in town tonight, decided to go into spoons for a bite to eat as it was getting late, sat down for 2 mins
then the misses went up to order food. I looked at my phone & got a hand on my shoulder (a mate) burst into tears as I shook
his hand wtf is going on, I got a bit of a shock tbh. His wife has got terminal C. She has been clear for 6 years then found a lump
on her throat. Shes a doctor & theres nowt they can do for her.
Then on the way home I went to the shop & on the way out I bumped into another landy mate from along the road, he's
had a stroke & its affected his eye sight so not allowed to drive was saying he might have to sell his s3.
This is the 3rd person ive known in 3 days to be really ill.
I can spell perfectly in two languages, so when I do not it is on purpose.Word blind Says he that spells ph wiv f's,
Cant be good at everything, grammar/words are probably my worst subject in school all I was interested in was....
PE, wood/metal work art & home economics as I fancied the teacher she gave me free stuff.
Now just realised this is where the free thing comes from

Mate. Poop. You poor bloke and obvs the poor blokes you have run into.I picked the misses up in town tonight, decided to go into spoons for a bite to eat as it was getting late, sat down for 2 mins

Oh dear, what a shame. Feel for him, and you.Just heard tonight the guy I'm restoring the S2 for who lives in the UK has been seriously ill and they've found an enlarged prostrate he's having tests on Friday...
He does Landrover fuse boxes as well!!...Love it!
Tried summat like that on our dishwasher in Frogland. Blokey charged me £40 to check out and replace the condenser on the PCB which the forums said was likely the problem, i.e. the water not heating. (Yes I did bring the PCB back home cos I couldn't find anyone locally). He gave me a handful of condensers having fitted a new one, tested the whole PCB, said there was nowt wrong with it for his initial charge. So it has to be the element. Which is sort of the thing the uninitiated might think first off. Forums don't always know!
We manage to use it by having lots of really hot water thanks to the solar panels and a hot feed to the machine.
But the washing machine just cost time!
My missus also tends to try the same thing on, plus threatening to "get a man in" if I can't find the time or the inclination do the latest bit of PITA DIY.
So I'm a bit jealous you have a local PCB mender!
Thanks...just finished a patch job on a roof for a mate today 4 days turned in to 6 pita job...so bitter sweet news realy can hold off work on his Landy and sort stock for shop and work on own house for a few weeks...Oh dear, what a shame. Feel for him, and you.
