You worked in haulage? I used to work in the freight business, and we dealt with a lot of haulage companies, mostly Irish admittedly. Found most of them very pleasant (I'm sure you were), though I did get tired of hearing variants of "The truck is ten minutes away/ He got a puncture/ He missed the ferry/ He was there and got no answer" and the ever-popular "POD? What? Oh yeah, we'll fax it to you." Three days later, still waiting for that signature....

As it goes, no, but thanks for asking: we're back to square one. The guy took the machine apart (and I mean down to the BONES) yesterday, fitted the new part, the sun had its hat on, I got one load of washing dry, put in the next and BAM! same thing again. Now I have to get him out again today, or I'll be stuck waiting till Monday, and have to go through another weekend without clean clothes or towels.
