20th December 19:00hrs....WooooooHoooooo finished for Christmas.........Rush to apartment to finish packing, and making sure the fridge was emtpy of perishables.......very important as we would be returning in January early in the morning and dont need to find a smelly flat.
decided to clean the place when packing was finished! SW threw bed linen in the washer hoping to get it dry before we left (4am in morning)..........washing machine had other ideas. For a few days it was grinding away......we still used it thoough........well it decided to have a hissy fit....washed ok......took on of the sheets out so the dryer could be used....(it doesnt like drying a full load!!) almost finished drying needed a bit more time, so threw it back in and carried on cleaning....returned to find the machine re wetting everything....stopped the cycle and thought that a spin would drain it....NO...........it didnt want to drain either! 10pm by this point! and sopping wet bedsheets, no way to dry them, and 6 hours before leaving flat........
nothing else for it............we removed the plug at the front of the machine and flooded the kitchen!!!!! was the only way we could empty it.......thank god for drains in the kitch floor. decided to give up with it at 11:00 and hung the washing on chairs!!! well in 10 days it will be dry!!!!
Woken at 4pm to the call of prayer on CJDs Karama "special" bright pink mosque alarm clock, all we could do was laugh!! thats a great way to wake up in the morning!!!!!
Off to the airport to check out the duty free, scoff, hug and say our temporary goodbyes and split to our respective gates.......CJD bound for Glasgow, me bound for Manchester.
flights on time and away we go....
had a great 10 days catching up with our nearest and dearest and oh how the 2nd Jan came round so fast!
