Totally OT - dishwasher problem - any advice?

I subscribe enthusiatically to that principle, Milady. I have an artefact hanging in the garden to ward off leopards.

It's 100% effective.

Not dishwasher but washing machine,stopped last night with a bang,smelt like the heater so removed it this morning,it came out all bent and broken!Removed the drum to find three legs of the spider broken!not a cheap machine and only three years old!,heater £17,drum£160+vat,and you cannot reasemble without fitting a new belt and motor brushes so well over £200 to repair! so its on to "tinternet" to buy a cheap one,must just check the cupboard for a kit-kat! phil.

Ouch! At only three years old, I'd certainly argue that a broken casting like that (it looks like a casting) is hardly fit for purpose. Wear and tear on a door seal is one thing, but a structural component like that should surely last at least 10 years! (unless you've been mixing concrete in it :lol: ).

I'd be on the phone to the retailer, insisting that they arrange a no-cost repair immediately.

Are you working your way through the animal kingdom? I dimly recall your earlier 100% success at warding off elephants.

Do you have anything for moles? Our score chart now proclaims a tally of 35, but they keep coming. :twisted:

Actually, the elephants were something of a bonus by-product. I found that my anti-leopard device also worked for elephants. Come to think of it, I haven't seen many hippos about, either.

I do have a device for banishing moles, but unfortunately it only seems to be effective if your property is founded on solid rock.

I don't know where the leopards moved to, but I think I have all your displaced elephants.

You clearly need to deploy one of my devices, Milady.

They are, of course, hand-built. And they embody some cutting-edge technology, of my own devising. What I'm getting around to saying is that they're VERY expensive.

That's certainly more stylish that our traps, but we don't seem to have a problem killing the poor things, just preventing all their little friends from taking their place a few weeks later. :evil:
