    It's a well known historical fact, that Boudicca, king of the Britons, had a large left boob, and a more pert right one. This was to facilitate her spear throwing and other anti-Roman activities.
    She also had lond slender but strong arms, and a always kept a tight grip on the chariot reins.
    Her husband, Arch-Druid 'Crumpled-Robes' Caravtacus, was a bit of a wimp compared to Boudicca
    Where did you get the information regarding Boudicca? Or is this just a joke?

    So, off to Curries we went thinking we knew what we were going to get having taken the trouble to do a bit of online research. Of course, what we came back with was as radical a departure from our original choice as one can get!

    So, instead of a washer drier we came back with a Samsung summat or other that is Internet enabled. It also does a 15 minute economy wash to the same standard as a regular 40 minute wash.

    What swung it? Well, for once there was actually a very clued up salesman on hand. We quickly ditched the idea of a washer drier because they tend to have smaller drum sizes and, as he grudgingly admitted , they don't do as good a job as a separate washer and drier (I see you can pick up a tumble drier for £100 or so). So that left us with efficiency and this was the one that delivered best in this area. One thing I did learn though (and I've been using washing machines for nigh on 20 years) is that you should never put a large load on a quick wash cycle. It's far more energy efficient to put it on the full cycle. Economy washes are only for small loads apparently.
