45 minutes to get through to the washer repairs persons at Hoover. Covered by 10 year parts, but it's £129 call out fee. Opted for option 2 which is the £16 a month full cover, including accidents (seeing as MrsF nearly killed the dryer a few weeks back). I'll not be so precious about shoving my muddy MTB gear in it then from now on !

The bonus is they will be out to repair tomorrow.

Been out for a perambulation around the house. Sat across the back seat of the car for a while for a change of scenery.

If only I had the foresight to park it somewhere with a view of something other hand a hedge before breaking my ankle! I could never press the clutch to move it in my current state.

All faults were logged, with a maximum of three of the same fault before you were charged.
Not certain if it's the same now. It's why I ended up fixing them myself. Anything bar the logic(Spock) board.
 
Grey, mild and still here chez Casa Reynard.

I have had a bit of a kitchen morning. There is a tomato sauce going on in the crock pot, and vegetables have been sliced and sauteed. We are having a Mexican night,

My ISP's webmail is down (and has been since yesterday morning) which is awkward because I do have to get hold of some people. I may look into setting up an alternative (free) account somewhere.

it is almost time for luncheon.

There is bugger all inside the machine - I pulled the motor off and checked the motor. It's surprising how little there is in a modern machine - still some concrete or other material near the front of the machine though

My son's two rescue cats have their annual check-up at the vet's today, starting with the Manx. He was caught and stuffed into the cat carrier before he'd realised breakfast was being shortened.

I've a feeling the vet may suffer as a result :B)

How's the vet ? Only one of our 4 is difficult to get in the carrier - we usually shove her in bottom first, before she realises. Can't go in front first as she sees it and out go the legs - fortunately she's a Ragdoll so doesn't deploy claws into the owner.

Top-loading carriers are your friend here. So much easier to get a reluctant cat into them. ^_^

If you remember onion sellers from France during the war years and you mean the 2nd WW , you must be at least 85 years old. on the other hand l can recall seeing a bloke in a striped sweater riding a bike with onions hanging from the handlebars and l'm at least ten years younger than you. Of course he may have been a canny english guy thinking the "get- up" was a good selling rouse with the ladies ^_^
I have given up on hiding my age which is in fact 86.
