My faithful old dryer (is 8 years old?) finally gave up on Thursday. It went through the motions, ie spun the clothes around and blew out air, but it was cold air and nothing dried. I went shopping for a new dryer yesterday and today it arrived. The delivery man struggled carrying it down the stairs but when I asked if he was okay he assured me it was light (for a macho man maybe).
Dryers don't come in boxes anymore, just packaging (cardboard, wood and foam) and then wrapped in strong plastic.
It is big!
I usually only need the dryer for towels when it is raining, and we go through a lot of them. There are only 2 of us in the house but each day we use 4 towels, one hand towel, one bathmat, 3 face washers and 1 teatowel.
After I had peeled the layers off and moved it into its new home I realised that it was not the dryer I intended buying. Oh well, a dryer is a dryer. It will do the job.
Now I need to wait for the rain. The newspaper reports that El Nino has arrived and we are in for a lengthy dry spell. Of course it won't rain - I have a big clothes dryer ready for action.
