Watching the telly

After watching ru pauls drag race I have conclkuded you have to be gay in order to be on it. I've no problem with that, even the female drag queen this season is a lesbian. Just an observation couldn;t care less what they are or what to be or claim to be. Not my sort of entertainment when I go to a pub or club, been a couple of times and I was bored. Not bored stiff I hasten to add ;-) but the show itself is rather amusing and if there's nothing else on....

I flicked through the channels

Me too, just bought a new machine after my previous one started taking more than a day to do a quick wash.

I haven't found that setting on my new machine , seems odd to have a setting to wash your arse. I use the bath, for stubbon 'stains' I find 400 grade sandpapper works fine ;-)

Recently after an update I;ve found that it takes longer to fully charge (iPhone7) got some message about it optimising charging but not too fussed, as my weekly report typically says I spend 20mins per day using my phone.

I bet she hasn't a clue what shes talking about most of these peolpe don't.

I don;t like it below 22C when sitting watching TV, but if I wear a second T-shirt then 20C is fine.

I've never really like steak or pork chops and don;t like fatty meat. When I do have meat on the scale I prefer mine almost burnt , don;t like to see blood or even pink flesh. I quite like some of the meat free stuff yuo can now buy like the vegan quorn smoked ham But the worst food I've had has been a nut roast. I used to like jellied eels but no longer, not sure why. I remember in the late 60s going down walthamstow market and my nan getting 2d of eels or something and them taking them out the bucket live and chopping them up.

Ebac, the dehumidifier people, make washing machines that have both hot and cold inlets.

They also give a 7 year warranty. Never seen them advertised anywhere though

In other words, you looked for a white presenter.

In other words, it interested you.

In other words, you were looking for something to moan about, as usual, on TV.

Yer dead right pal!

Bill

We murderers know these things.

Bill

No, I looked for a programme that didn't have a disproportionate number of black /brown presenters. Because I won't be a party to the broadcasters' attempts to make us think that or third or a half of the population is coloured.

Yes it did.

No, I was fully moaned up that day, because I'd spoken to the council, the butcher, and the repair garage. I just wanted to watch the telly.

Bill

But you're in Yorkshire!

About a third of the population of Bradford is non-white.

Oh, bad luck. Could I suggest online chat with British Gas. You'll be able to get fully moaned up in one easy hour-long session that achieves precisely nothing complaining about the four hours you've been waiting for a second time for a meter fitter to fit a meter.

Fark, you need a better dishwasher. I never rinse anything, it goes straight in the dishwasher and normally sits there for a fortnight until its full of dirty stuff and always the contents are perfectly clean when they come out.

That's West Yorkshire.

Bill lives in the proper part of Yorkshire.

One possible reason for dried on food is reloading dirty plates while the washer is still warm from the previous load.

And the slope would be near 45deg. to avoid this altogether. First move on emptying is wipe the cup bottoms with a drying cloth.

And charge an extra £100 for all of their hot fill variants. They seem to be aiming the hot fill variants at those who use solar to heat a tank of water.

how on earth do you have a dishwasher than can handle 42 mugs 28 saucepans and plates and 125 sets of cutlery?

I don?t use mugs or cups. I only bother to wash the single water glass once a fortnight and the beer glass too.

I don?t cook in saucepans. I do almost all meals in the digital air fryer and just produce a single dirty dinner plate a day, the main meal. The frozen peas and corn is done in the microwave in a glass mug that gets washed once a fortnight.

Only one a day. I don?t eat lunch any day, at most it might be an apple or slice of fruit cake.

Breakfast is just a massive slab of my own bread made in the bread machine with marg and marmalade on the plate that gets reused for a fortnight.

14 actually and that fits fine in the two cutlery baskets.

The digital air fryer drawer goes in the dishwasher once a fortnight too.

Pray tell how you can know this by 'flicking through the channels'?

However, thanks for confirming a presenter's colour is far more important to you than how well they do their job.

L:ook at the picture, count the faces.

No I don't care about the colour of individual presenters. The BBC does though because that's how they appoint them.

Bill

Probably caught the spots off a dirty fork.

I think I have spotted the joke:-)

Actually I expect the knife blades have to be a hardenable version and not fully stainless.

Just the BBC, then? Your usual whinging about them.

I'm sure if you try you can find a channel that only uses Piers Morgan clones.

'Mixed Load' - I always imagine this setting marked by a symbol of a bloke.
