Ooops, that meant to be hydrogen peroxide - 6% food grade strength [please don't buy hcl for cleaning!! ] Hydrogen peroxide is readily available from Amazon and eBay suppliers. I normally buy job lots of multiple 5ltr containers for ease and bulk buy cost saving.

Pardon our interruption...

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.

W is in charge of the washing machine. She only let me near it when she was stuck in bed or on the sofa with her bust ankle. So I have no idea.
She has just insisted that she always leaves it open, with an edge to her voice!
But the thing that holds the detergent drawer and the main pipe off it, which has a u-bend in it. were quite manky. Fortunately it all came out and apart without too much bovva.
The U-bend I think is a snare and a delusion. Cos water sits in it all the time. Above the u-bend drum side it was clean except for a slight limescale greyness, but drawer-housing side was pretty rank.
T'internet says "Clean the drawer and the doorseal" which is all we have ever done. But until now we have never used washing machine cleaner, i.e. the liquid you can shove through it. Nor have we cleaned the drawer-housing. I think we'll be using this stuff from now on!
The machine in France only ever got used during the 5 week summer holiday for years, with extremely soft water. Only started being used normally since 2015, for 6 months a year. Which might account for tjhe lack of problems with it. Plus it is a bit younger.

Do you peeps use dishwasher cleaner too? We don't seem to need it. We have used it but it didn't seam to make any difference. Things were coming out clean and there was no smell anyway.

Every day is a school day.

Once watched a thing where a group of ATC cadets bought and ate a kitkat in under 3 minutes, if I remember correctly.
