Ecological washing takes time!

I have just had to buy a new washing machine. Got a John Lewis A++ one instead of the Siemens  A+++ one, as it was slightly smaller and I have a very narrow hall between the stairs and the wall.

A wash is going to take 240 minutes - 4 hours!!!

I used to get up weekday time on a Saturday to get the sheets and the towels done before going kayaking, then after kayaking put in the clothes while I went shopping.

I think I will have to learn how to set the timer for the delayed wash so I wash my clothes overnight and my sheets and towels while I am kayaking.

This means understanding instructions, and modern-day instructions don't seem as simple as instructions used to be (and I don't think this is my age!!!).

Delivery Thursday, so I have to clean the hall, the conservatory and the kitchen ready.
