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.

Yeah, I hated my job in haulage although I would take it again for the money! I used to find the staff from other Depots were really nice. I even had a phone friendship with one haha and PODs should all be burned. I hate them, I used to get my clothes really dirty because the drivers were leaving them to get stamped into the truck floors. I felt like a mechanic.
Urgh you've just had no luck at all with household problems. Hopefully you can wash your clothes and towels this w.e. Haha.
I'm gonna bitch about getting a drip in your hand, except mines isn't on my hand its at a strange angle on my wrist and I can't hold my book because its so uncomfortable

I haven't eaten in 24hrs and I need to wait til atleast late morning before I will have food. I'm definitely treating myself to a BK tomorrow. I deserve it.
