I've buggered up the dishwasher

We have a Bosch dishwasher. It wasn't washing as well as it might, soI thought I'd check out the power of the jets from the rotating arms.My cunning plan was to fool the machine into running while the doorwas ajar by sticking a knife into the hole in the top of the doorwhich engages with a U-shaped piece of metal fixed to the upper edgeof the inside of the machine. Inside the hole in the door is a wedge-shaped piece of plastic. It easily clicked into the position it's inwhen the door is closed. Great for checking out the jets (they'refine), but I can't get the thing to "unclick". The machine now thinksthe door is always closed! So do I have to dismantle the whole doorassembly to fix it?

Put a high fence round it and call it a fight cage. Should be quite popular in your neighbourhood.

It is very quiet after the d*****ad nextdoor moved.

Two squirrels had a fight last week. That was amazing to watch. The G20 cops would have been scared of that. They like an easy to beat target.
