What a week.....

[Miffy2003]

It has been one of those weeks

Sunday afternoon we came home to find the washing machine had died and the kitchen floor was a little, shall we say moist?

We took the wet clothes out and put them in a basket to take over to my mums to complete the washing. As we shut the front door begin us, the lock broke and we had to call out an emergency locksmith to get us back in our house. As he gleefully told me "oh dear my love, most expensive time to call us out, a Sunday night". Well, thanks like I had a choice

We had had an extended power cut on Saturday night too so I was hoping that was the proverbial "bad things happen in threes" covered off.

However tonight Number 3 happened when the new washing machine arrived (I only ordered it on Sunday late so was really pleased we could get it so quickly). It seems there is a problem with my plumbing, which meant Mr Comet could not fit the new machine. So, we had a lovely sparkling machine..... in the garage. Very luckily my step dad was able to sort of sort it out though we have had no water for hours (except all over the kitchen floor again

I don't think I have had such an expensive week for ages - and it was all on things which just are not fun at all

Wow Karen. Feel guilty that I've been moaning that PC has been down for the last 2 days.

Seems to be at this time of year that things go wrong

Oh dear - hope it's all up and working again soon.

Years ago our main car "died" the week before we were going on holiday to France. It was meant to be a really cheap holiday but the £1,000 it cost to repair it, made it very expensive.

My commiserations for you

Our kettle blew up last night and until I rushed out to buy a new one today, we had to make cups of tea in the microwave.

Oh Dear Karen!!! I find things like that VERY stressful. Don't these things always come at the wrong time!!
