you think they'll all be the same size?
this is interesting news. i was nearly in tears trying to make the tape measure reach the back of the sodding dishwasher this morning!

erm, do the work myself? can you IMAGINE how that would turn out?

it's taken me about an hour to choose between a pink and a silver retro smeg dishwasher (to match my fridge), that is the limit of my capability!

I would've thought so
unless your old ones were particularly expensive and fancy and part of a properly bespoke kitchen.

I didn't think you would want to do it yourself ;-)

definitely not
they're just fairly old manky miele things. and i have to open the washing machine with a screwdriver at the moment because i snapped the handle off trying to open the door whilst it was still locked, so a new washing machine is particularly urgent!

I've heard they can be found 'on the internet'.

When can I start?
I can't drive but everything else sounds fine.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:29, Reply)

Driving is piss-easy Monty, You'll be fine - especially if the car is an automatic.

an automatic a girly, open-top Merc.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:34, Reply)

it is a hard-top convertible thank you very much
and it is not girly. it is black and sleek and dangerous.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:36, Reply)

Dangerous because it has a woman driving it?
OOOOoooooooo

so much bitter frustration
once you've touched a real woman it will all just melt away, i promise.

Strangely, the Ignore link under your name is purple for some reason
It must be telling me something subconciously.

yes
it is telling you that you can't keep away, however hard you try.

You're right Swipe
But there're just too many differences between us. Besides, you have Monty moving in to look after your hovel.

that sounds like an ideal job
where do we send applications?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:33, Reply)

you can't apply
you already have a wedding ring or will do!

Standard domestics will be the same size for dishwashers and washings machines, integrated fridge-freezers can vary.

I'll come round and measure
everything, and might even fit them for you.

I do!
Mucho busy day yesterday and Rome Thurs-Sun.

How are you chum?
(Himjim died a little more inside on, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:22, Reply)

Lucky chap. Rome superb, I assume?
I'm good. You missed an excellent bash.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:28, Reply)

Rome was stunning, as always.
Seriously tempted to move there, but I'm not sure if I could cope with the lack of order day to day. Great place to visit for a few days, but any longer and I'd get annoyed that no-one gets up early.

So I heard! I hope you didn't berate anyone too much. Were Kitty/Apple/Nomfucks/Vampito well behaved?

I feel an interesting dining experience is on the cards soon; care to join?
(Himjim died a little more inside on, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:31, Reply)

I've considered a move to Rome myself. Full of fucking foreigners, though.
Everyone behaved, sadly.

Dining = yes.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 10:33, Reply)

Thinking of Ethiopian
or Sengalese if I can remember the bloody name of the place.

You are nomfucks right?

Mixing up members of LAAK?
This is how the whole thing got started, tut tut.

This is the problem
You're all girls, all strippers, and all self effacing.

I don't mix up Lampers, 'cause I know her IRL.
