It got here about half an hour ago. it weighs 200lb or 100kg.
It's fecking heavy.
Very fecking heavy.
Being a cheapskate I decided to unpack & install it myself.
Not sure this was a good idea as good ideas go.
Had to saw the pallet in bits to get the thing down on the floor the ..
The transport thingies are another challenge.
But it's connected up now.
Not altogether sure I am any more. Ho hum.
Managed to find a location on the floor where it doesn't rock back & fore.
May try a wash before long.
Once I've recovered a bit.


Twas an interesting exercise watching two strong chaps getting the damn thing over the little wall since the gap was too small for it to pass.
It only just got into the kitchen.Comment

Aren't the little feet adjustable to stop it rocking? Or is the floor too uneven for them?Comment

I noticed last night that Drama and another two channels had appeared on Freesat.
Plus a channel that shows ancient films.Comment

Indeed. I got an "I love you" picture from the littlest, with my name spelt almost right. She's still at the age where chocolate buys love.Originally posted by zeitghost View Post
