Washing woes!!

The guilty party...with my washing trapped inside!!!!!!!!

Today has been one of those days!!

Granted we have had lovely sunshine, so we have been out and about to the park and on a nature walk (we saw a horse.....that counts as nature!!!), and it has been a relaxed and slow day.

Then I came home and decided that the weather was so nice, I would put on a load of washing and get it out on the line to have a good blow ~ nothing unusual in that!!

Well, everything was quiet and calm.......until the washing machine went into the final spin and the noise was unbelievable ~ I thought the whole kitchen had fallen down!!!!

It finally came to a very noisy, shaky halt ~ at which point I decided to have a look and make sure the clothes were all ok ~ unfortunately the washing machine has other ideas.....the door will not open, so all my newly washed clothes are stuck inside ~ being held hostage by my Hotpoint (supersilent spin.......like yeah that's not quite true........) Washing machine!!!!
I have phoned the repair people, who have told me no one can come out until after the weekend, and they advised me to just leave the machine and not to try and force it open......even though my poor clothes are being held prisoner in there (haha!!).

So much for that line of fresh clothes blowing in the wind!!! ~

I just hope it has nothing to do with what happened last time the machine broke down............the nice (young!!!!!), Hotpoint man came out to fix it and very promptly found the problem.....one of the wires from my underwire bra had come out and got stuck in a pipe.......the embarassment I felt was evident in my bright red cheeks ~ as he held up the wire and said "Have you lost something?"..........before having a good chuckle to himself!!!!!!

Anyway, luckily one of my friends has said I can use her machine for the rest of the washing ~ until mine is fixed!!!

Not the best day I have ever had and to top it all off, the highlight of my whole day is that I have got to go and vote in the local elections.........I can hardly contain my excitement (not!!!!).

Never mind, I will go and vote and when I get back I will kick the washing machine and see if that helps.......if not, at least it will make me feel better!!!!!
