Front loading washing machines do not crease the clothes as much as top loaders & they use less water. The goverment here in Perth (WA) give us a discount voucher if we purchase a front loader for this reason.

Don't agree:0(with respect. Have had both and although the top loader uses more water it does a much better job at cleaning. The service guy agreed. It is also less likely to need serviced. I don't worry about creases with a tumble dryer. JMOP......

Anyone of you New Yorkers going to be in Manhattan 10-14 February? I will be there for Dog Show Week at the New Yorker but spending most of the days at the Pennsylvania or MSG. It would be such a treat to meet some friends on this thread.

Hi everyone:

I've been SO tired when I come home from my new job, all I can do is sleep.. I hope it gets easier soon.

Anyway, I wanted to check in to see how everyone is. Hopefully you are all in good spirits.

Has Ldynlv gone to the UK now? Any news from her yet?
