Phil’s Washing Machine Saga, Pt. II

indesit2…and so, we return to the continuing low-water mark of Shinypixel life that is the lack of laundry luck in the world of netizen Phil.

Tense developments abounded after a new handle arrived from the bowels of an Indesit warehouse.  Whether through cackhandedness of co-ordination or subtleties of shape, it just didn’t seem to fit.

By early afternoon today, it didn’t look good…  Tensions were running high:

hopefully me dad can fix the new handle on cos i’ve given up

The air hung heavy with atmosphere and Lenor for a couple of hours.  Then:

fixed!

successfully opened the door after a load as well!

A happy ending for all concerned.

On a related note, Anthony notes that if Phil was in America, this is very unlikely to have happened, as most washing machines in the US are top-loading.  Something I certainly didn’t know, and if you’ve bothered to read down this far, then hopefully you’ve learned something too!

Got anything tedious I can write about?  Let me know at rik at shinypixel dot co dot uk!
