Lovely job on sunday morning

Bugger knew I was getting the load and feed arse about!

You obviously have a sence of humour and will fit in fine here, many don't make it lol

Thank you kindly - if it gave you or anyone else a smile then it was worth making the post.

I have a similar story with my younger daughter.
She has two daughters, a two-year-old and a six-year-old. We get to keep them from time to time. Not all that often - it's a 200 mile round trip to pick them up. And another to take them back.

OK.We were to have them for a week.
"Dad, when you come to pick up the girls, could you look at our washing machine. It's making a banging noise."
Having had three kids myself, I know washing machines get heavy use and abuse. I have replaced almost every part on them. Except the electronics controls, the bit I ought to know most about. Pumps (coins left in pockets can really screw them up), main bearings, motor bearings, belts, motor brushes* solenoids.....yes, most people would have discarded them but I'm a Scot.

Anyway, off we went to get the little girls. And to look at the machine.
So, my daughter ran the machine to demonstrate the problem. And sure enough, it made a banging noise. Quite loud during spin cycles.

"What do you think?" she asked.
I couldn't resist.
"You're right. It's making a banging noise."
"DAD !!"

OK. I looked at it and found the problem. The drum has concrete weights, at least that's what they look like, around the drum to help balance uneven loads. One was loose and rattling up against the drum. A couple of turns to tighten up the fixing bolts. Job done

Another nice meal. Then back on the road with the chatterboxes.

*A story for another day perhaps.

Worth a try plus, some men pay good money in certain establishment's for the pleasure of pain

Isn't that how Michael Hutchence bought the farm?

A tory MP was found dead like that once, can't recall his name now but he was also hanging from a light at the time, apparently he tried to take it to the point where pleasure is at it's maximum for that kind of weirdo, he didn't make it though, he died with an orange in his mouth wearing stockings and suspenders and had a cucumber in his knickers.

... and for second fix?

 

[bigbaddave]

Just got a couple of light fittings to take down for my parents, although payment will be in the form of a Sunday dinner cooked by my mum.

If its anything like my mums will be worth a hell of a lot more than the poxy £40 id get for changing a light fitting...

I hope you use the claw side of the hammer and not the flat head side.

 

[GLENNSPARK]

[Plonker 3]

Yep, quite a few people have come unstuck with the pleasure/pain/almost dying theory, and as trev said... Michael Hutchence was one who springs to mind. I seem to remember the weirdo politicians used to frequent Hampstead Heath.
