50 Million Pounds in 1966 That's $ 100 million Australian in 1966, a great deal of money. I can just remember people talking of the crash. I think in part because they did not run their credit business in a disciplined fashion ( hire purchase was a significant if not their most important...

Challenges on two accounts Establishing a new romantic attachment at an older age is difficult and you are also entering inter-appliance type relationship. I wonder if there is a support group somewhere?

Yeah ... Welcome back Cruise-O-Matic! I like all the old advertisement threads but this is my favourite!Great work.

Good one Leon! When was/is the broadcast time. They really foxed on washing machine questions. They really weren't about washing machines but fun none the less.

Good quality for the price, no fuss, pleasing performance Running a Bosch lower MOL washer ( ~ 5 years ) and dishwasher ( ~ 4 years ). Would buy again unless something else really stood out and took my fancy. Perhaps next time would go higher MOL - TOL. Bought LG condenser dryer ~ 18 months...

That was the end of a very long career Although he was a very old man by then it some how feels to be authentic

For reasons that arent even clear to me ... I came home having bought a LG 8 kg condenser at just over $ 1 000. Actually there were two reasons for this . Our kind and long suffering cleaning lady chronically over loads machines ( and also washes wool jumpers at 60 o C on normal wash but that's...
