    It's easier to bung stuff out the front unless you live in a no through road.
    I got rid of another tomato plant yesterday.

    More gems on Freecycle this week. Some bloke is asking on every local group for school uniform including a skirt and tights. Maybe it's for his daughter but going by previous experience I wouldn't rule out him wanting it for personal use :|  Someone else is asking for a flat screen TV but specifically nothing under 32".
    My wife has been trying to give away some baby stuff too. Plenty of interest, lots of emails back and forth to arrange but no one actually turning up to collect it.

    Some of the stuff people list on sites like that amaze me.  I saw one a couple of days ago trying to sell a printer.  Great description, ending with "doesn't work so only £20"!

    Our dishwasher has given up the ghost. I thought it was less than 5 years old but found the paperwork and it's 11! Repairman can't come till Tuesday so I've had to get the rubber gloves out. I hate washing up.

    my sympthies. We had to replace ours a year after moving here. It was a nightmare to find one which fitted into the gap. £750 later, hurrah

    Good lord @Hostafan1, is yours gold plated?  I only paid about £400 for my AEG one from John Lewis.

    My dishwasher is multifunctional …  cuts the lawn and cleans the windows as well as washing the dishes … and also has a few other useful abilities. Never broken down yet 😉

    it's poxy Neff, but it was the only one which fitted the aperture in the fitted kitchen and the door could be replaced. there was only one model which was more expensive. GRRR
