Is that all Carole.

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Oh my - with still 87 days to go, you folks are also going to have to be patiently awaiting this concert. Hang in there - hopefully, the time will pass quickly.

It'll be here before you know it!

I've really been tempted by this as I love Bryan Ferry as well as our Boys, but yesterday our fridge broke (AGAIN) and its going to cost €800 to repair. As well as a few other household jobs that can't wait any longer. So short of winning the lottery between now and July it doesn't seem very likely. Pity,

800 Euros?? for a fridge repair, blimey that's almost £700 surely it would be cheaper to buy a new one? Fingers crossed you win the lottery!

This was sold to us 4 years ago as a 'Particularly good' Amana Fridge. At the time it would have cost €5000. We were getting a big kitchen order and the girl co-ordinating it rang us and offered it to us for about €2800. We were told another couple had ordered it and had changed their mind.
2 years and 2 months (yep, just out of warranty) it broke down and all our freezer stuff melted. Paul rang the Irish distributor, gave the serial number, make and model and he was informed that it had NOT been rejected. It had been a demo model. Now if I had known that I wouldn't have bought it on the first place.

It has had 2 other repairs since to replace the computer board and the starter of the compressor, the last only 3 weeks ago. All have cost money.

I will get a new compressor and have it fitted IF AND ONLY IF I can get a written guarantee that any further repairs will be covered for the forseeable future. Otherwise we may indeed consider a new one. Not only has this cost us the repairs, but also there has been the cost of having to dump food that has been defrosted or could not be chilled.

Ok rant over!!

That's Shocking!!! I think you're entitled to Rant....I know I would be

Thanks TG! But hey, there's no point crying over spilt milk..... or warm milk.... or any milk at all!
