The Washer

Some people, when buying whitegoods, expend a vast amount of time and effort looking through things like Which reports, scouring websites or visiting numerous retailers.

The washer has died.

During its final rinse this morning it went from the normal fairly thunderous rumbling to a squealing, shuddering stop, with smoke and a nasty rubbery smell.

Turned it off at the wall and eventually (after a few scientifically applied kicks and punches) the door unlocked and I got the washing out.

Fester came downstairs and agreed the washer was dead.

It's more than 6 years old, which is twice that in a normal household.

After Ferretfingers came home and we'd had lunch we got the 55 to Haymarket and went into John Lewis.

Looked at a few models and decided to get the updated version of the John Lewis one we have.

Spoke to the assistant.

Fester got his card out and paid.

And we came home on the next 55 to leave Haymarket.

That, dear reader, is why I love him.
