I didn't think they had chocolate back that far?

yeah, but that had eggs

@MontyVeda - good to know you have sorted the immediate crisis.

And now, in what some might consider a judgement from God, my washing machine has not washed. The isolator valve appears buggered.

Your very own fire basket.

Oh frabjous joy!

eggs are for every day of the year! well they have to be when you get 6-8 eggs a day and you are a 5 person family
Cheers Ed

The Victorians invented Easter in the same way that they invented Christmas and Scottishness; kilts, bagpipes, whisky and all that carry-on. Easter was invented when the Quakers got into chocolate manufacture and firms like Frys, Terrys, Cadbury and the rest needed to sell more chocolate. Greetings card manufacturers have done the same with Father's day, Mother's day, this day and that day.

What would I care? It's not my kitchen.

In case the choccy eggs taste smoky?

pagans invented chocolate... not Quakers.. they invented oats, and meeting houses.

What's the dates for these last two? I'll keep an eye out for the cards.

You mean there are eggs that aren't chocolate?

I dunno what all the fuss is about getting slaughtered on a Friday and not getting up till Sunday. Had plenty of weekends like that.

I would have tried Adrian's siphon from the detergent drawer.

Bad Friday.

thanks for that... have already looked and am currently working our how i can gravity drain the sodding thing... the pipes are behind the machine and dragging it out might pop the door open (had that happen before). Can't find a manual online (hoover performa 1100), and cant see the model number as that's on a sticker inside the door, which won't open... and can't see any evidence of a drain panel on the front.

found that one... thanks... although it's a completely different machine.

I have since found the proper repair manual and got the part numbers for the (obsolete) parts i need.
