Put a load of washing in yesterday and after 6 hours and manny
attempts at different settings it was wet , washed but not rinsed or
spun out, verdict the machine is now past it.
After checking "Which" website I found a machine I liked so startrd
pricing it,
IU always thought Comet were quite good for price, but they wanted
just over £400 , ended with Co-operative Electrical Shop, free
delivery and the price was £289., ordered it this morning and will
have delivery on Sat, they will email me friday night with 90 min
delivery slot.
So tomorrow will be removing old machine, take out the slabs of
concrete, then the drum to use for growing a fig in, will have a few
bits to take to recycling, but not a lot.

If you are able to weld legs on, or know someone who can, the drum makes a
great outside woodburner for those evenings on the patio. Why spend loads
on a chimnea if you can get a washing machine drum?
I've seen one in use and it looks really attractive, like it must have cost
a lot so no need to be embarrassed if you invite your neighbours round for a
barbie.
If they ask you where they can buy one you will have to tell them that a
relative who lives abroad sent you one because they are all the rage there
;-)
Or come clean..pardon the unintended pun.
