If they are not breaking, people are breaking in and stealing them. <br /><br />But our Speed Queen Automatic washing machine we have had for ... let me see now... 20 years come November. It cost R1700 when we bought it, and was the most robust-looking on the showroom floor. And I've seen them in laundromats. It's lost a bit of it's enamel in places, but has lasted well.Steve Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11283123400540587033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11180319.post-57188630287920798782010-07-08T19:00:53.607+03:002010-07-08T19:00:53.607+03:00Thanks for the congrats.. hard to believe we'v...Thanks for the congrats.. hard to believe we've been here four years already. <br /><br />Why guilty? I suppose it's my belief in being frugal, the fact that money is always limited and new appliances weren't in my budget.

...Why do you feel guilty about buying necessities?<br /><br />We live in a throw away world unfortunately.<br /><br />I've just replaced a tumble dryer and dishwasher, luckily one was covered by insurance. I have a slow cooker at the back of the cupboard somewhere. Your post has reminded me to dig it out. Does great Kleftiko!! Stick a few lamb shanks in with bay leaves and potatoes. Let it do it's thing for 8 hours, voila!!<br /><br />Ruth xkipzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01741807602994566524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11180319.post-84887068819239846462010-07-07T00:26:21.536+03:002010-07-07T00:26:21.536+03:00Happy Anniversary.....I remember finding your blog...Happy Anniversary.....I remember finding your blog soon after we returned from Cyprus in '06.
