The other Friday I woke up and after giving Poppy her breakfast I made my usual large cup of coffee, got the milk out of the fridge, thought the bottle felt a bit warm as I put it into the cup I bet you know what happenned next, large bits of milk floated to the top and it smelt off. Luckily the milkman always comes early on a Friday so I was able to empty the revolting mess into the sink and start again with another cup to wake my brain up to it's usual morning level! Empying yoghurt into the sink washing it all down and throwing away the rest put me off breakfast. ( Poppy had already eaten all hers and was hanging about to see if she could snaffel any but hard luck she retired to her blanket to have a nap. )
I do not have a very large space in the kitchen for an under the counter new fridge so no nipping down to Currys and bringing one home, I had to scour the internet to find one that fitted into the space. Couldn't get one with free delivery unil the next Wednesday,WHAT, so eventuallyhad to pay £30 extra for next day delivery, £15 to have it unpacked and fitted (that means plugged in) well I wasn't able to get it out of the box and I did want to check it wasn't dented or broken in any way and £30 to take the old one away. I had to pull the old one out and scrub behind it, can't remember when I did that last.
Good things about this general hoo hah, was
1. I hadn't much food in it as I was going shopping that day
2. I didn't go shopping till the Monday so made all meals out of the freezer or fresh fruit etc.
3. Delivered spot on time with hourly updates on the day as to arrival.
4. The man and woman who delivered it were very helpfull and pleasant, all rubbish taken away.
Conclusion. Don't moan Val it was just a nuisance compaired to the the poor people of The Ukraine.
fell better now I've got that off my chest. Happy day to all of you. Val and Poppyxx
It's still a nuisance and an expense. It's strange how we've come to rely on these appliances, and I am very grateful for them.
