Fluffy we have a miele washing machine from Marks Electrical. 
Need I had forgotten the wallpaper. You're quite right. I'll just get sunglasses.
The oven man came and says he thinks we need a new fan. (£200)
The oven is a pyrolitic self-cleaning one and he says they do tend to self-destruct because the 500 degree heat of the self-cleaning cycle melts the grease on the back which then runs into the fan.
It's a bit of a problem because that's our second fan gone in 5 years and they cost £200 a time. I don't fancy a non-self-cleaning oven, which means maybe switching to gas.
My dm has a gas oven which has been going strong for 25 years and never needs cleaned, because the gas flame burns the grease off as it appears in the air.
Do any of you have gas ovens? I love electric because it is so easy to control the temperature compared to gas, but I don't fancy oven cleaner, or spending £200 every other year on maintenance.
I have cracked one of my ribs reaching too far over a fence to get something. Ooops.
