Re: Another joke.
Ireland Declares WAR on France
Jacques Chirac, The French President, is sitting in his office when his
telephone rings.“Hallo, Mr. Chirac!” a heavily accented voice said. “This is Paddy Down
at the Harp Pub in County Clare, Ireland. I am ringing to inform you that
we are officially declaring war on ye!”“Well, Paddy,” Chirac replied, “This is indeed important news! How big
is your army?”“Right now,” says Paddy, after a moment’s calculation, “there is
meself, me Cousin Sean, me next door neighbour Seamus, and the entire darts team from the pub. That makes eight!”Chirac paused. “I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 100,000 men in my
army waiting to move on my command.”“Begoora!” says Paddy. “I’ll have to r ing you back.”
Sure enough, the next day, Paddy calls again. “Mr. Chirac, the war is
still on. We have managed to get us some infantry equipment!”“And what equipment would that be Paddy?” Chirac asks.
“Well, we have two combines, a bulldozer, and Murphy’s farm tractor,”
answers Paddy.Chirac sighs amused. “I must tell you, Paddy, that I have 6,000 tanks
and 5,000 armored personnel carriers. Also, I have increased my army to
150,000 since we last spoke.”“Saints preserve us!” says Paddy. “I’ll have to get back to you.”
Sure enough, Paddy rings again the next day. “Mr. Chirac, the war is
still on! We have managed to get ourselves airborne! We have modified Jackie McLaughlin’s ultra-light with a couple of shotguns in the cockpit, and
four boyos from the Shamrock Pub have joined us as well!”Chirac was silent for a minute and then cleared his throat. “I must
tell you, Paddy, that I have 100 bombers and 200 fighter planes. My military bases are surrounded by laser-guided, surface-to-air missile sites. And since we last spoke, I have increased my army to 200,000!”“Mather in heaven!” says Paddy, “I will have to ring you back.”
Sure enough, Paddy calls again the next day. “Top o’ the mornin’, Mr.
Chirac! I am sorry to inform you that we have had to call off the war.”“Really? I am sorry to hear that,” says Chirac. “Why the sudden change
of heart?”“Well,” says Paddy, “we had a long chat over a few jars of Guinness,
and decided there is no way we can feed 200,000 prisoners.”

DPEasier than that is instead of water, blow down it, you will know if its blocked if your cheeks expand like satchmo 😯

Re: Another joke.
Two women are walking home after a girlie night out. They are very drunk
and the walk home is taking some time due to their intoxicated state.Eventually, they find themselves desperate for a wee. At that particular
moment, they are passing a church and decide to go behind the headstones in
the graveyard. As they finish they both realise they have nothing to
“freshen up” with so the first woman decides to use her knickers and then
throw them away.The second woman is wearing very expensive underwear and is reluctant to
lose them, when she notices a new grave nearby with lots of fresh flowers,
amongst which is a very lavish bouquet with a thick soft ribbon. “Just the
job!” she decides and without another thought, duly drags the bouquet over
and uses the ribbon to dry herself. Their task is completed, the women
continue staggering home.Next morning, the husband of the first woman phones the husband of the
second. “We need to keep eye on our wives. Mine came home with no knickers
on last night”.“You think you’ve got problems” exclaims the second husband. “My wife came
home last night with a card stuck up her ar*e that said, “We’ll Never
Forget You – From All the lads at the Fire Station” 😆Re: Bosch WFT280 on fire.

Hi Jim
Thats a tuffy 😕 Its definately an isolated case. I take it appliance was in outside shed? Dampness must have been a factor if that were the case.
Point that out to the customer, most modern machines do not appreciate such conditions and Bosch are no exception.Greg

Re: Bosch WFT280 on fire.
Also not always no motor action indicates module damage. Some Bosch machines can cause uncontrolled spin up and down.

Re: Bosch WFT280 on fire.
Read it again Bryan, a quarter of the commutator on the motor was destroyed. He fitted new motor and discovered slow spin speed.

Re: Bosch WFT 2800 Fault
It is a good machine and not bottom of the range, however without a crystal ball…………..but you will have changed the two most expensive parts on the appliance 😉 .
