OK, so i have to wait in ALL DAY for the Hotpoint man to come fix our 6mth old cooker (anytime btwn 8am & 6pm!!)

And what's the betting he turns up at 5.30pm when i have to collect DD from nursery?

Oh, yesterday the engineer was supposed to come between 8am-4:30pm to fix my washing machine and guess what time he came........4:29pm Plus I had a rubbish night sleep and DD1 (2.3 yrs) woke me up at 5:30am and I couldn't even nap when she had her afternoon sleep as I was worried that I might not hear the doorbell if I was asleep.

Oh, that's rubbish! I guess at least I have the house to myself , but don't really know what to do with it!

I had my Hotpoint washing machine fixed on Tuesday (was 3 yrs old though) and I was told between 12 and 6pm. Still stuck in for hours but at least I got the morning free. Obviously I got off lightly there!

Still waiting........

Get in the bath. The minute you do the doorbell will ring!

He turned up at 5.40pm! With the wrong part! Have to go through it all again in 2 weeks

I had my washing machine fixed last week. I was offered the last call of the day, so only had to wait from 3.30pm to 5pm.
