Well it had to happen, we’ve just booked an expensive holiday, Gill wants a new car, and it’s nearing the Christmas shopping period so obviously the washing machine has taken upon itself to self destruct. It hasn’t quite completed the process just yet but every cycle is currently accompanied by the dulcet tones of metal grinding on metal. I’ll give it two more cycles before it finally gives up the ghost. All of which means a trip into town tonight to compare different makes and models, I can’t wait.
Having had a cursory browse on the internet it appears we will not be lost for options
- How many washing programmes would we like?
- Do we need a hand wash facility?
- What maximum spin cycle speed is required?
And on the green side of things...
- How energy efficient is the machine?
- How much water does it use on a standard cycle?
All this information and much, much mare is available for every model out there and there are a lot of them.
I just know I’m going to get a headache tonight.

You fogot that it needs to look nice!!!
An impossible task for a washing machine, I’m afraid. This is no longer a problem as the threat of a replacement and a bit of judicious drum manipulation by yours truly seems to have rectified the situation for now.
