Hi girls.
Please could you all do something really lovely for Jimjams DS? Well of course you will.
Will you please go and take a picture of your washing machine, you can then eithr scan it in and email it to me as a j-peg or have it develoiped, asap, and post it to me. (Contact me for my address through mumsnet).

Thank you all so much.
I know you won't let me down and I look forward to receiving pics of your washing machines very soon.

JimJmas - are there any other white goods that he'd like while we're at it?

Just found this - piccies on their way to the yahoo account

Jimjams · 16/03/2005 10:49

ThomCat · 16/03/2005 10:46

Jimjams - you've just reminded me - I have some more to bring in and post on

Still haven't made a massive impact on the clutter yet though! However I have a few bags of clothes and toys all heading to the charity shop this weekend so maybe that'll help

Jimjams · 16/03/2005 10:31

TC- I sent you a reply - my email packed up for a bit though..... yes thank you I have loads and I have turned them into a book for ds1- with symbols. He's very pleased with it.

I've been meaning to email soapbox as well to say THANK YOU for the magazines

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone (is it ok to shout that?? )

You all have much nicer kitchens than me!

ThomCat · 16/03/2005 10:24

jimJmas - did you get all my emails?

SoupDragon · 15/03/2005 20:41

Do you have enough washing machines now, JimJams?

heartinthecountry · 28/02/2005 14:48

What a fab idea TC!!

I will try and remember to take some pics today - shall I email them to you TC or Jimjams direct? Or I could send prints to JJ direct?

Marina · 28/02/2005 10:54

What a shame I didn't see this earlier as I could have snapped a smiling dh lying on our kitchen floor descaling our machine's pump at 9.30pm on Sunday night...
Will snap with boring old analogue camera tonight and hopefully get to Thomcat by end of week.

Hulababy · 28/02/2005 10:50

E--mailed some.

emmatmg · 28/02/2005 10:41

Oh sorry TC, didn't realise it was a work email, apologies for hounding you, I'm not good with patience

Have sent them this AM direct to Jimjams, you're printer will probably pack it's bag and leave with all the work it's got to do otherwise.

Well done for organising this, you're a star

ThomCat · 27/02/2005 19:36

I can't do anything, or check anyones emails until monday at work. What I do receive I'll print off when I get a chance during the week and post off to JimJams. anyone who wants to print their own off and post direct to me, or straight to JimJams, that's great too.

TC, not sure if my email got to you. I'll CAT and Jimjams instead.

Davros · 27/02/2005 14:30

TC, are you going to email these to Jimjams? I'll send mine direct. I will have to go down in the black hole where the washing machine lives with my camera (cellar). I was going to suggest to everyone who has a kid with "funny" tastes(!) or who really likes looking at photos, to make a slide show on your photo software or use PowerPoint.

popsycal · 27/02/2005 14:20

i have a picture of my washer...just have to upload it to the pc later today and then will post it on....

connorsmum · 27/02/2005 14:18

My pics are on their way too. I hope that your DS enjoys them! I don't air my dirty (well, actually they are clean now!) washing to just anyone!

Kerry

coppertop · 27/02/2005 13:10

Dh has just tried to take a picture but our camera is ancient and the kitchen is too dark without a flash. Sorry. I'll keep an eye out for other pictures instead.

ghosty · 26/02/2005 23:57

have only just seen this ... and have just taken some pics ....
On their way to you now Jimjams ....

jmb1964 · 26/02/2005 23:43

Done! I really enjoyed taking the pictures, actually, and our ds1 was fascinated by the idea too - remembering your ds1, Jimjams, he wants to know how the sensory room in pregressing? I know how much else you've had to do, though, and was trying to explain to ds1 about the challenges of new babies... Set me wondering if you could somehow turn your lowest level into a safe and confinable area? Our ds1 also described your PECS cards to dh in loving detail, down to the little bits of velcro on the back!

Jimjams · 26/02/2005 17:16

You can email them to me if its easier for you TC- I can turn them into a book

Thank you everyone- he's going to be in heaven

JaysMum · 26/02/2005 16:14

Will get snapping asap.....anythng to help make a litle mans life happier.

I have sent some to your yahoo address. Hope you get them okay.

ThomCat · 26/02/2005 15:39

You can use my CAT me or use the new yahoo address I set up.
Or you post them to me direct at my work address and then at the end of the week I'll put them in a big jiffy bag and post them to JimJams DS

The google trick is easy -- you go to google.com and above the search box there's a list of stuff. It normally is set to "Web", but the second button is "images", and if you click it and then do your search you get pictures. Use "vacuum" not "hoover" when looking for those as the Hoover dam and president Hoover tend to overpower the things you clean the floor with.
