@Wildedges, the Retailer, not the manufacturer, are legally obliged and responsible for a full two years under EU consumer protection law, doesnât matter what the retailersâ stated guarantee is. Little known law that retailers do their best to deny. You need to look up the act and quote chapter and verse. I did that with a large DIY chain and they capitulated in the end.
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
The UK isn't part of the EU anymore though. Hopefully we've kept the law for now though. I know we managed to get a fridge freezer replaced under similar circumstances a few years ago but I can't remember exactly how. That one was terminal though and I assume this just needs something replaced.

It is until the end of this year @wild edges and I believe one of the first things Theresa May and co did was push thru a law adopting all EU law into British law.  I don't think there have been changes to consumer protection law since then. No time.
I took the dog for a quick walk last night once the kids were in bed. There was a police car parked at the top of my street by the woods and the sounds of a lot of shouting and activity hidden in the trees including some very drunk sounding girls. I heard a car tearing down the forestry road followed by a loud thump and the sound of a metal pole being sent flying, then several scramblers headed off across the farmland. Just as I was getting home the police car left and a minute afterwards the scramblers came coasting down the road with engines and lights turned off. I'm guessing lockdown is getting boring for some people...

My wife is doing stir fry for dinner. I've suggested we call it stir crazy instead. I could do with a very long walk
but anyway my Suttons order turned up today and apart from a bizarre substitution of the spring onions it's all there and ready to get growing. Apparently I plant these onions in late summer and harvest next year. Not very handy for summer cooking but we're overrun with chives anyway so they'll have to do instead.

Domestic sort of morning pottering about, making a big red salad to last a few days and fritata for 2 lots of lunch. Then I decided to give the dogs their spring dose of wormer and tick and flea treatment, cleverly hidden in a tin of sardines in olive oil which is good for their coats. Rasta doggy managed to lick her way round all 8 small pieces of the flea and tick biscuit!  She'll get them crushed with her arthritis meds in cat food at bedtime - the things we do to keep that dog healthy!
After lunch I went out and put weedkiller on the gravel area and drive and then headed off to spray the area that will become my new tree and shrub border. She followed me down the garden and rolled in the newly sprayed grass and weeds!! Horrid dog!  She's had a bath now and smells like a damp sheep cos she's a woolly bear who's missed her April haircut.
Just went out for a brief walk and saw the car that caused the noises last night. The metal pole noise was the handrail from the bridge being launched into the river after the driver misjudged the turn and/or his driving ability and clipped the support. The car is still there so I guess it did more damage to the car then the bridge.
