  1. Those packs are far more expesive than the powder and that's why the companies are pushing them so hard. The same reason they make more and more cleaners, detergents, shampoos, liquid soaps. If they can find another product you're silly enough to purchase, they will find another excuse to make one. Now you have to clean your washing machine. How stupid.

  2. Not being from the US I've never heard of plugs falling out of walls.... ever, but maybe I'm lucky.

  3. You want a laugh, I think Britain is about the only country that does. I came from London a very long time ago and was shocked to find they don't have them in Oz either. I don't think they're anywhere else. Correct me if I'm wrong. We use 240v as well.

  4. Could he do that? Britain runs on 240v. I don't know if that's possible and it would be a lot of hard work. If it's possible of course, he might be able to afford to do it soon. 😅

  5. Thank you very much. I still use the powder and have no intention of changing. I've got fed up now with hearing ads about cleaning your washing machine. People have been washing their clothes for a hundred years in washing machines, now we have to wash the machines all of a sudden. How ridiculous. These manufacturers will dream up anything to sell a product. Now they will tell you your washing machine smells, you have to clean it.

  6. I love you're logic and if I ate bread I'd go find one of those in a minute, but I don't.

  7. What... you don't know the colour of the live wire? 😂

  8. My light bulbs last years. I even had one that lasted seven years. The secret is, don't turn the darn things off.

  9. You do know why these things don't get made anymore of course. All our electric stuff is made in China now, as quick and cheap as possible. Even the things that have the good names have parts made in China.

  10. I'm in my seventies and have never seen a battery tester, see no point in one as you put the battery in something until it dies and then replace it. So, what's the use of one?

  11. 😅😍😥Thank you darling. Until you mentioned the chart inside the door, I'd never even see it. The thousands of time I'd opened that bloody thing since my mum bought it back when I was a teenager and I have never ever seen that chart. 👍😆

  12. Then that's why Australian houses are always burning down. A ten cent fuse saves lives.

  13. That was amusing, but I understand what you mean, I can't get to most of mine and am scared to death. LU, from Oz.

  14. Britain has always had fuses in the plugs and all thirteen-year-old kids are taught how to change them. Australia doesn't have fuses but they do have a lot of house fires.

  15. I've got a unit that holds three litres of cold water that looks a little like the thing you showed last, but it doesn't hold hot water. It hold cold water and when I press the button, out comes hot water. Lust like a gas hot water system in the house. I've owned it for three years, bought it from E Bay and it works great. Just pours out the hot water I need at the time.

  16. I'd buy one for a relative if I could find one.

  17. My Sharp looks nothing like that one and it's 43 years old. I'd love to have the paperwork that probably came with it but it belonged to my mother and she's been dead now for eight years so I can't ask her about it's fancy bits. I use it most days but only for quick warm-ups.

  18. You really are fun to listen to and watch. Thanks.

  19. I wan't to know how you can stop a one of these things constantly beeping all night long when you can't reach it to turn it to turn it off. It's not right to have put up with such an irritating noilse all night. How do you get it stopped? I should be stoppable.
