Your latest purchases, cont.

I bought Sennheiser headphones for the Missus' iPhone, because the crap headphones that Apple sells were literally crumbling to pieces. Man, I -so- dislike Apple products.

I thought it was about time to buy a tumble drier, since the winters here are so cold and so humid. It's always a pain to wait for the laundry to dry, and I want to avoid the chance of letting humidity build in the walls. It is quite an old house after all.

I chose a condenser one, since I do not have access to a window from the place where it will be installed, and I went for a Zanussi after reading some very good reviews on the internet. I hope it'll bring on a change for the better.

I'm sure it will. Just be aware that when clothes first come out of a condenser drier, they'll still be a fraction damp to the touch and need airing for a few minutes or so to dry out fully, esp. if you set the drier setting to anything short of "super-fluffy" or whatever the extreme dry setting is called on your machine. It's just how the technology works.




Bought all my Christmas presents for colleagues yesterday so I can hand them out as and when I see them over the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for the heads up! It got here this morning, it's been tested and it works very well.

Bought a tank of gas, a bottle of Diet Dr. Pepper and some kettle chips. It was a long drive.

I'd even say that taking them out slightly damp makes for less wrinkled clothes than ultra-dry. Glad it's working out!

And thanks for this bit of info as well!
It's always a bit tricky with a new piece of equipment, all advice is very appreciated.

This sounds like a great beginning to a detective story.

I bought this necklace for my sister-in-law for her birthday. It's a bit cheesy, but she's really sentimental and I figured it's appropriate, since we were friends long before we were sisters.
