Now this would be funny if it hadn't stressed me out so much in the first place...
Imagine the scene, I place a large bath sheet, 2 bath towels, a hand towel, a bath mat, a pedestal mat & 2 flannels in the washing machine with my detergent dosing ball/cap/lid/thingamajig (whatever you want to call this device) & switch on the machine to wash my load of towels while I pop down town to meet my bessie Jason & good friend Jo for a nice chill out & Costa.
A large skinny latte (what is THAT mug all about?!)
Now on returning home, I dropped off my shopping in the lounge & then went to put my freshly laundered towels in the dryer... as I remove them one by one from the machine, I can't for the life of me find this blasted dosing contraption - where the hell has it gone, it can't just disappear?!
I proceed to shake the towels individually, thus removing any bunched up corners etc & to see if the offending article falls out to the floor... but alas, the thing is nowhere to be seen. So, I shake my head & think ok I will check the machine again, I spin the drum round, nope it really isn't in the machine - odd??? So I then one by one shake each towel/flannel/mat individually again, but STILL there is no sign of the blasted thing!!!
The offending article - stupid dosing thingamajig!
Now by this point I am thinking it's no good it must have disintegrated in the washing machine cause I used a 40 Cotton wash instead of a 30 Synthetic & these things are not that heavy a plastic... Crazy I know, but I figure there is no other logical solution as I have triple checked everywhere & it hasn't appeared yet. So I go off to the tumble dryer, thinking oh well I have another in the cupboard & start to load up the towels - I decide that I may as well just put them in I have checked them more than enough times & they were hanging directly over my arm...
I put in the flannels, followed by the mats, then goes the hand towel & low & behold when I put in the first bath towel what should fall to the floor?! Yes, you guessed it the bloody stupid little dosing thing!!! At that very moment I quoted my bessie's favourite line 'Unbelievable' - Jason, I am sure you would have been in fits of laughter had you been here.
My lovely freshly laundered towels
You really wouldn't believe it would you??? So unbelieveable I HAD to blog about this as I am STILL laughing about how stupidly crazy this actually was!!!
