ready for the new one to arrive tomorrow?

I've shifted it as far as I can and unplumbed it but I can't get enough oomph to drag it up the hallway to the garage by myself and he's just sitting on the pc doing fukk all

Well done you... You must be really keen to try it out - I would have left it there until he got home at least... (but then I am not sure I would have been able to plumb it in myself)..

Can't believe he hung up on you.. perhaps you have wounded his male pride... hehe

4 months without a washing machine meant I am indeed keen to use it!! I've been handwashing things all that time I've held off this long because I've been in dispute with the manufacturer of the old one (it died at 13 months old )

I really am seriously considering dumping him now, well, have been for a while really but this is making me really think about it. He just had the cheek to msg me on msn and ask me to put his favourite t-shirt in the wash!! He's also buggering off to visit his parents this weekend, leaving me to sort out the chaos that will ensue with the installation of our new bedroom furniture on friday.. he's even booked thursday, friday and tuesday off work to make sure he wont have to be around!

lazy is not the word!

its really easy to plumb in if you have the connections from a previous machine, just hook up the pipes and plug it in

You might accidently spill bleach on the t-shirt in your rush to get it into the new machine

You have to read the instructions book about removing packing bolts. I had a handyman to hook mine up as dh is not good at things like that - paid with dh's cash! I was without a machine for 3 weeks, it is the pits!

yup.. it sucks to be without a machine. I was lucky in tht I watched the installation of the last machine and it wasn't that long ago so I remembered how it went

He's just come in from work, big cheesy grin and "ohh it's lovely to have a WM again isn't it?"

My response was.. "what do you care, it hasn't impacted on you in any way not to have one, if it did I bet it would have been a lot less than 4 months and you'd have gotten involved in the argument with Servis"

he gave me a dirty look, muttered about having fun at work all day.. and stomped off to the bedroom, lmfao
