This one is a whirlpool which I thought was a good brand going to have a look at it over the weekend to see if it can be fixed, not happy about having to buy another one after 3 yrs

Many years ago when I was a young housewife and mother....   I used to break my washing machines with almost as much regularity as you, Aimee.

 

I got chatty with the repair man (he used to drink in the pub where I worked) and he told me that most domestic machines were only designed to last a max of 5 years.  Not only that, but the longevity (if you could call it that) was based on using your machine no more than TWICE a week!

I mean, what family has that little amount of laundry?  

 

EC is spot on - you need an industrial one; they're more robust

That wouldn't surprise me I have a new one coming Tuesday like you say though, families use them more than a few times a week

My little one had her first full (Induction) day at school today and My boy went to Secondary for the day with his big sister... They're growing too quickly!! 

 

Eldest in currently performing in a LAMDA show at school tonight (in this heat!) and is supposed to be off to France tomorrow... but I'm worried about the strikes and tailbacks etc. Gonna have to call the school tomorrow about it.

Jen, the years fly past! My eldest was 33 a few days ago, and it seems no time since he was the same age as his 2 year old daughter.

I hope the industrial action doesn't spoil your daughter's school trip.

I spoke to the teacher Yogi and he said they've been talking with the travel operator, the strikes are supposed to end at midnight so he said they will be able to get the ferry... but may have to wait a bit longer than expected.

 I'm glad she is obviously enjoying herself, Jen.
