I’ve just been thinking… What if Nick (nickuk) is hoping his son will ‘accidentally’ order a washing machine for him on eBay…? ;-) Imagine the scenario…
A washing machine appears slap bang in the middle of the kitchen. Mrs Nick (I know your surname, Nick – just being silly here!
hehe) is not amused:
“How did THIS get here?” says Mrs Nick.
“I dunno. I didn’t order it – HE did!” says Nick.
“What do you mean, ‘HE did’?!” says Mrs Nick.
“Well, he was adamant about trying to get hold of an Ecologic, but he got just a Logic for me! I’m not a happy bunny! Silly boy can’t even read properly! I am so ashamed!” says Nick.
“Of course he can’t read properly – he’s only young!” says Mrs Nick.
“Well, I heard about this three-year-old who ordered a car off eBay. Same thing happened here, I guess. Funny old world, isn’t it…? Dunno what I am going to do with this washing machine. Maybe I’ll get rid of it…”
Mrs Nick walks out of the room, looking up at the ceiling in slight despair, trying to remain supportive. Once Mrs Nick has left, Nick can’t help himself:
“Where’s the rating plate?! Model number?! Serial number?! I NEED DETAILS!!!”
And the saga goes on… ;-)

PS I hope you do not find this somewhat rude or intrusive, Nick.
I can assure you that I am not targeting you at all; this could be aimed at anyone, including me.
I just cobbled it together in about 10 seconds.
