up, milkie replenishes & slams lid.

I was on the way back from the shops a couple of hours back & saw a heron
come in to land just in front of me. What long dangly legs they have.

That's a thought, thanks.


I was (briefly) impressed to notice that their webserver noticed I have
Flash turned off ... until I went on to observe that it draws its logo over
the menu, so I can't get at anything. Turn Flash on, and it redraws
everything too small to read. Quote Bob Marley on "Acting smart and not
being clever".

We bought a Brabantia Rotary Clothes dryer when we moved into this house in
1986. Still in use. Been re-threaded a couple of times.

If you can by a Brabantia product via Amazon ...............................

You didn't get it quite right. For your benefit I will re-post it for you
:-))

""Has anyone any experience, good or bad, about buying from Amazon?""

Get it right next time ;-((

and do keep up. Have you not read the replies?

In a nutshell and to save you the trouble of checking things out, in
general, mail order is a rip off, but Amazon have that side of it tied up to
customer satisfaction, not dealers 'Let's get shot of it' satisfaction.

Kindest possible regards

Mike

Answer me one small question.

Why do I need to draw attention to myself when I don't have a business or
financial gain to be made?

Might I respectfully suggest that you engage brain before operating your
fingers on the keyboard.

Kindest possible regards
