New Washing Machine

[Snoopy]

Is due to arrive at any minute and I have been summoned to disconnect the old one in order that the delivery people can take it away. How hard can it be to unscrew a hose from a tap and pull out a plug from a wall socket? Do I have to do everything around here.

Where did you think the terms "Underdog" and "Dog's life" came from?

Bite the delivery man.

I haven't the strength to bite him BUT then again I haven't the strength to get a tenner out of my wallet to give him a tip either.

This is when you find all the nuts have seized (story of my life  ), that you give yourself blisters trying to unscrew the bloody things. WD40 doesn't actually work and you end up just ripping the bastard things out. Thereby causing far more damage than you ever thought possible and making the refitting of brand new shiny appliance impossible.

Sorry just venting

Job done in two minutes flat ~ I fitted it you see so all threads were coated with vaseline to prevent eventual seizure and, as they are nylon anyway, were only done up ~ as the maufacturer recommends ~ finger tight. No spanners were harmed in the install or un-install of the machine. Don't make me cough ~ it hurts!

Seized nuts, Vaseline, finger-tight nylon.

It could only be our Snoopy.

Don't knock it - he sounds a sensible chap. I would never have the forethought to do something like that.

I know - makes you sick eh!.

Who would have thought the sounds of smugness could be so loud

You would if you knackered washing machines as often as my wife manages to ~ still with three kids it does see heavy action. Two loads daily x 7 days ~ it adds up.
