To despair that

[Colliecross]

the lid on my kitchen bin doesn't close properly?

[pjmama]

Very annoying. Buy a new one?

I hate that my kitchen floor isn't level and my fridge door won't stay open - just slowly and annoyingly swings shut on me as I'm trying to put the shopping away.

[WitchyWooWoo]

is your bin full of rubbish, hence the lit not closing? mine often has that problem

[ASecretLemonadeDrinker]

collie - new bin
pjmama- door stop

YABU... Despair is an emotion that shouldn't be wasted on bin lids. Keep it for something important

[stepmumtoone]

witchy thats my problem aswell! YANBU i hate this problem

[shockers]

Wait til your hoover mysteriously stops half way through a long overdue session, leaving one half of the floor pristine and the other covered in bits and fluff... THEN you would dispair.

[Colliecross]

witchy and stepmum we can have a support group.

[Colliecross]

shockers That'll teach you to start hoovering.

I won't be doing it again... it's dead

[queenofthecapitalwasteland]

colliecross my bin does that, it truely spols my day!

I tend to dispair that I can never find a pen in the house. I don't know how I cope sometimes

[stepmumtoone]

oh my queen i agree where are all the pens in this place although can ALWAYS find an envelope from all the bills to write on lol. the heartache is just appalling!

[mumblechum]

COLLIECROSS is it a Brabantia touch bin? If so you can get a free replacement as it has a lifetime guarantee.

I'm on my 4th lid.

[stepmumtoone]

love of god...[rolls eyes]

I don't even have a bin - we use a carrier bag on a cupboard door handle.

[Porcelain]

The door keeps falling off my washing machine

[FetchezLaVache]

thumbwitch... Luxury. We used to dream of carrier bags on cupboard door 'andle. We had to eat rubbish and be glad of it, an' all!

[thumbwitch]

You had rubbish to eat, LaVache? You were rich! We had to eat the bag t'rubbish came in after t'rats 'ad et all t'rubbish.

[Jasonthunderpants]

As the bin been squshed out of shape ever so slightley?

[StealthPolarBear]

January get a washing up brush with stiff bristles and clean the inside thoroughly (tht the drawer slides into, especially the top).

I have the door-swinging-shut-on-me fridge problem too, think the door is overloaded. I find tutting and sighing in an irritable fashion when DH is close enough to hear the only thing that really helps. Oh and I've trained my 3yo to hold it open for me too

[OrmRenewed]

I am in despair over my washing machine. It died amidst horrible whining noises (machine not me) and clouds of acrid smoke. We are moving in a few weeks (I hope!) and there is a built-in machine in the new house so no point in getting a new one. Meanwhile DH and the DC will be paying a few visits to the laundrette I think!

[StealthPolarBear]

look at it as one less thing to move

Glad to hear it's finally happened
