Got Wimblowdriver Towers house insurance sorted for the next 12 months. Buildings and contents for 30 sovs less than the quote from the current insurance company which was buildings only. Sorted on line in minutes. Then had to cancel the auto renewal for the old lot - wot a pain, several attempts to do that online, got nowhere with it, then had to hang on to the phone for best part of an hour waiting for the call centre. Eventually got to speak to the person at the other end, and got it sorted. I hate call centres. And virtual assistants which don't work. And piped krap music. And a posh accent telling me how important my call is to them, and please hang on. Got to do the same with me tratter insurance this week - 'ere we go again. :rolleyes:
Was it India I can't understand what thay is talking about due to bad hearing
 
Send it to Stan, he likes frog food :p
I like frog's legs but only like snails grileld with garlic butter.
i did try a snail stew once. The sauce was lovely, the snails ........... not so much. Too gamey!

By the way...
What the flip is it??:stars: It looks like a hairy or frosty snail. But cannot believe any snail with a brain would allow itself to be caught out like that.

I always try to do all this from France as phone calls from there, being digital, cost nowt unless I am totally ages on the phone.
somehow I feel we keep getting away with this relatively easily.
all insurance is a pain at the moment!

Mid moring or mid afternoon is tge best time to call. Weekend will be a lot busier.
 
Tbh the machine you got her outweighs the fact it's front loading, it sounds fab don't worry about it 😁
As you may remember, she got the machine more or less by accident, it just turns out it is pretty amazing. The person who flogged me the manual for it rates it very highly, mind you she would wouldn't she! But seriously it seems incredibly robust as well as clever. I bought the second one for the pedal, and the plug which is well weird! So I am dead chuffed she will have two to play with.
I am pretty sure the front loading bobbin is just something to be got used to, no machine of any sort is perfect. ;)
 
Looks like we ain't gerrin snow. Hurd a bump smornin. Eye were int kitchen watching telly. Looked oot the window. Me squirrel was sat eating me hazel nuts. Leaned over some more ferra better view. Eye was quite happy. Then the peeps on telly started screaming. Me squirrel climbed up me fence and legged it. Eye sat by me patio door. He came back twice later but that was it for today. Tis cold oot. Eye has recharged me radiator batteries.
