Here's wishing you a lottery win. I just hope it's not the one I'm supposed to get. ;~)

Money's not a great problem - Simon hardly spent anything while he was away, so we have some saved up. I think the washing machine is 5-8 years old; an okay age for such things? The dryer might still be under warranty!

For major appliances, 5-8 years should not even be middle age. Our washing machine is starting to reach its end of life, but seeing that it's just over 30 years old and well-used I won't feel cheated when it goes.

I have repaired it, though. The repair was needed after a slight overfill caused water to run down the electrical harness connecting to the motor and thus shorting out the motor connector. Yay hooray for the GFCI (aka RCD) outlet which I'd installed, which tripped just as it should. And yes, when I rewired the washer, I ensured that any future leaks won't zorch anything.

I would buy you a lottery ticket if I could figure out how they work :-(

I occasionally receive lottery tickets as gifts. I always have to read the fine print on the back so I know what to do with them. The scratch-and-win ones have the most bizarrely detailed yet pointless instructions, as presumably the lottery agent only needs to scan the barcode imprinted on the ticket for redemption of the prize.
