Thursday and no sign of my washing machine

I was up and showered early this morning even though I wasn't going anywhere.


I waited till 9.15 and called Viv to ask if I could take some washing along. I took Totty with me in the car and once I had put the washing on Viv and I took the dogs to the park. We met Peter with Uuppy and all the dogs had a good run and play. After walking around the park and all the way round the street with Viv we got back to her house and after a cup of coffee my first load of washing was finished and I took it home.


The washing machine repair people called to say that they had managed to find the part for the machine and it was going to be $460 to repair it which, she said was cheaper than the original quote. I told her to speak to Seleena as I could not make that decision.


I did a bit of housework and then went to the supermarket and did my shopping. On the way back I went to Viv's and collected my second load.


Got back in time to make the toasties to go with the soup I made yesterday. I know it is a bit hot for soup but it is a good way to get Heather to eat broccoli and with the toasties it was a good lunch. (Daily Mail recipe from when I was back in UK).


After lunch I brought all the washing in and ironed it. I then washed all the socks and knickers that I had put in soak, I really don't like taking my smalls to other people to wash.


Heather came home and I went with her to buy petrol as she doesn't like to go on her own yet but I think she will be fine next time and at least the man does it for you at our local BP.


Jon had an email from Seleena to say she was going to go ahead with the repair rather than buy a new one. I am not very happy about it as I won't have the machine back till next week!!! I just hope after spending all that money that nothing else goes wrong with it. She could nearly have bought a new one for a bit more money.


I cooked the dinner, roasted vegetables and some little lamb pastry swirl things that I had bought at Farmer Jones and they were very good.


And after a bit of TV it was time for bed.
