After last weekend's abortive attempt at 'helping' http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=37199
I thought I would try again...with the dishwasher....big mistake! Totally re-arranged.
Should I just stay in the gargre in future?

Oh FFS
You'd think after 18 years of being together and washing clothes and dishes bloody near every day of that time, you'd have learned how to do it properly.
Ask for lessons if you don't know what you are doing - or just observe what I do - your 7 y/o granddaughter can do it - What is your problem!!!!
Rant over

To answer your question, yes. And notice that the two viewing the thread are both male, and both live in the same house? Hmmm. . .Away from the laundry and kitchen, is where I shall stay. Except for visits to the fridge and/or pantry.

The pinny is too tight and cuts off the oxygen supply to my 'parts'??

Consider yourself luck you still have parts left!!

Your problem is that you are approaching things from a chicky perspective instead of taking a bloke approach.

Now: faced with (a) a dishwasher and (b) a pile of dirty dishes, what would be the correct Kiwi Bloke thing to do ?

Obvious, ain't it. Take the dishwasher to pieces. Leave in bits for a few months whilst sourcing a few elusive parts that my be showing signs of wear. Meanwhile, she can do the dishes by hand. Sorted.

EDIT: Let this be a lesson to you young fellows. When faced with an household situation the Kiwi Bloke should always resort in the first instance to spanners. (The gas axe is reserved for particularly serious problems)

What ever you do, don't put normal dishwashing liquid in the dishwasher machine, unless your having a foam party, in which case invite me!

i had wednesday off and did 4 loads of washing to make the little woman happy. Then I remembered your thread and quickly removed all clothes from the line before she got home. Problem sorted. Clothes dry. worked for me. Browny points scored and I didn't have to put up with a lesson on how to do it "properly"

Well, you see.. we'd run out of the powdered stuff and I thought she'd got some new fangled liquid stuff to try... So bein' the helpful hubby type I put the dishwaher on before goin' out to work!

Gotta luv her though, she'd cleaned it all up by the time I got home!

And I didn't have to sleep in the garage, I think she found telling all and sundry how dumb I was was very theraputic!
