He first came six weeks ago to diagnose my washing machine, which had blown up and tripped a circuit a few days before...
Then he came back when the broken part arrived (three weeks later, 'cos I popped over to Sweden) only for the new part to blow up and trip a circuit again - I only mention tripping the circuit as it adds the excitement of the moment because my radio and phone/fax go off.
Finally (I hope), he was back again yesterday. This time there were no explosions and the machine passed all his tests. It seems he'd been supplied by Hotpoint with a faulty part previously. He reckons he has to return £150-£200 worth of parts in an average month.
I'm already onto the third load.

Posted by: Sheelagh at August 3, 2007 9:32 PMWhat are we betting? How long it'll take for me to wash all my clothes?
And what are you two doing ganging up on me, anyway? You haven't even met one another...

no, the length of time it takes before it breaks down again.
