The roar of the home crowd on Opening Day?
The soft murmurings of a lover in your ear?
NO! It's the spin cycle of the INDESIT WIDXL 86!
Look, look! Here it is . . . WASHING OUR CLOTHES!
The Whirlpool AWG 530 sits alone in the hall . . . banished and ashamed.
No one wants it and it's lousy 5 kg capacity.
The shop will come sometime tomorrow to collect it.
Look what it did to my floor! Just look. The parquet is all warped.
This morning, Man Friday told me his friend/colleague/lover?, Igor, would be back this afternoon to accept delivery. I handed Man Friday a gift bag with a small bottle of Russki Standart Platinum and some fancy chocolates. He demurred. I insisted.
He took the bag.
And showed up this afternoon with the machine, Igor, and some other young Russian hottie. Igor played with Cat-O while Man Friday and Hottie installed the machine.
Whatever.
I'm washing whites right now and couldn't be happier.
Next: blue jeans!
Waiting...

Congratulations! Though I am almost sad the adventure is over. We will have to see what next great challenge you have to overcome!
CONGRATS!
You call that parquet! You now have an excuse to rip that shiite up.
TRex: Yeah, it barely qualifies. Better to say "wood flooring."
