The man came out to look at the washing machine which was giving us trouble.
Eventually found the problem.
A 5 pence piece had got lodged in the pump.
Wow that was the most expensive 5p piece we have ever had.
It cost us over £100 to put the machine right!
Mind you I was a little put out because the quote was for £88 but the repair man charged more because he had some difficulty with the door and getting the washing machine out.
Never mind it is only money!
Owen the springer spaniel is moping around. I think he is missing Gorgeous who is still in Malaysia.
She seems to be having a successful business trip.
Techno is helping me with my internet business which is going very well.

Worked in out at last!
We have been trying to work out how to remove a board which is in front of the washing machine. (The machine is enclosed)
Taken ages but Techno finally worked out how to do it this morning. You just have to remove a board in front of the cooker which fits against the washing machine board.
It is just clipped in. Doh!
Anyrate we can now get the washing machine people out to look at it.
Gorgeous is still in Malaysia. It appears to have been a very successful visit so far although she doesn't seem to be getting the support she should from one person. Still she will cope admirably I'm sure.
Fortunately the weather is quite mild at the moment so we haven't had to put the heating on too high.
Joke for today:- A man finishes a terible round of golf. "I've never played so badly like that before" "Really sir" replies the caddie "so you've played before have you?
On this day:- January 25th
In 1924 the first Winter Olympics started.
In 1759 Robert Burns was born and in 1874 Somerset Maugham was also born.

In the doctors surgery
I went for a check up this morning and whilst waiting to see the nurse I was musing about the new signing in system.
It is now automatic with a touch screen.
Certainly it speeds things up but I got to thinking how many hands had touched that screen.
Ugh! Here we have sick people coming into a room and all touching the same place.
I wonder how much bactria is being spread around. Doesn't bear thinking about!!
Gorgeous is going off on her business trip to Malaysia this afternoon.
Our washing machine is playing up so we will have to get someone in to look at it.
Still can't grumble as we have had it sometime and it has never given us trouble before.
Joke for today:- Ladies go for younger men. You might as well since they never mature anyway.
On this day:- 18th January
In 1943 Russian forces broke the siege of Leningrad.
In 1778 James Cook discovered Hawaii
