    Re: How do you get a big Fridge/Freezer out?

    The boss has chiselled up tiles before to repair intergrated d/w. It something kitchen fitters like to do. Tile right up to the appliance with inch-thick tiles. The problem come, when the d/w is supplied with the kitchen, hence very cheap, hence very poor, hence will break very soon, and has been installed badly.

    ps. he doesn’t charge extra for chiseling tiles up, coz it’s so much fun. 🙂

    Re: Bosch Prices

    😆 Cheers Dave.

    I used to use dad alot (i love that name…’when’s dad coming?’).

    But the indie prices kick all the collective asses of the all-salers, when it comes to Bosch. I rung dad the other day and they’re abit more expensive too.

    Re: Bosch Prices

    I buy them from an independant that sells to the public. Bosch seem to give better price to indies than they do to the all-salers. The indie I’ve been buying them off for years has raised all the prices with this new range. While an indie I know but have never bought anythiing off, still has prices the same as last years range.

    I’ve tryed talking to my local Bosch rep about getting them to delivered straight to me, but he doesn’t want to know. I don’t think my showroom is big enough for them.

    Last (financial) year I was kicking the sheds asses on prices, but with these new prices, I can’t compete. I know I shouldn’t be tryng to compete with the sheds, (coz ill lose) but having better prices than them gave me the pyscological edge when chasing sales. It’s just knocked my confidence abit.

    Re: Firefox

    I’ve been using firefox for a week now. It’s great! I’ve only managed to crash it once. The flash plug-in works fine.

    While your recommending things, does anybody used ‘nochex’. I’d heard about it before I came here, but I don’t know anyone that actually uses it.

    Thank you.

    Opps! 😳

    I persumed it was a front-loader. Martin shoots me down again! That was just the first post I looked at. If you read through, there’s some seriously terrible advice. Here’s another top-loader/front-loader mix up.

    But most of the questions just go un-answered. The sad thing is, someone must make alot of money from that site looking at the amount of adverts.

    I found this…..

    Anyone heard the ‘Tenacious D’ album? It’s fantastic!

    I’d almost forgot about it, because they made one album a few years back, then starting acting!!!!!!

    Click the link above for a repair.

    We could do with a little more info. How old is the machine, or what is it’s model number? When is the water coming out of the soap-box? Contantly? During the rinses? When it’s filling? When it’s spinning?

    Re: Patience

    I popped out for an hour after I posted that last message.

    I come back and the post is full of head-slappingly bad jokes. Slap! There’s another, slap! 😆

    I think this needs moving to off-topic.

    ps. There’s only one Goatboy. My bro is pretty normal! Actually, to start up some disscusion, he wants out of Merloni because all he does all day is fix other engineers mistakes. Merloni seem to hired anyone, no matter how useless! He’s too talented a problem-solver to be wasted on them.

    😆 My brother is trying to! He’s sent ‘the dark side’ an application form. He works for Merloni now, and wants out! He’s better looking that me. 😆
