Yead.Won't be on til I get everything done that needs doing. Ironing not been done for about 2weeks, and doing the freezer will take me hours.

Hope you get a sleep Liz.

Take Care and Enjoy Life

Ironing, wot's that? I hang everything on hangers when it comes off the line, or out of machine and hung in doorways of rooms to finish drying if raining outside. Most times hardly a wrinkle in sight unless I look in the mirror lol

Hi Vicky, my fridge is self defrosting so has a little hole in the back at the bottom where defrosted water is channeled and goes to get recycled. It sometimes get gunge in it so I screw a piece of kitchen roll into a point and clean it out. It may be all that's needed but knowing your luck it won't be that.

the drain in the bottom of some fridges empties onto a tray, on top of the compressor,
where it dries out due to the heat of the motor......
THAT hole can harbour gunge n stuff!!!
