When I grew up there was no washer, no dryer; well, there was a wringer washer. Anyway, all my adult life I have loved my washer and dryer. I'm sure you are thrilled to get yours going!!! I would be over the moon if I were you. Nice drive; thanks for taking me along, albeit on the wrong side of the road (smile).

Oh yes I remember my mum boiling washing on the cooker in a big pot with wooden tongs, I think that was nappies! And there was a twin tub…and little spin dryer I remember vaguely 🤔 yes I must admit that was a very nice appliance to have back! We could try the other side of the road…but I’m not sure it would go down well with the police!

I lived in Belfast Northern Ireland from 1999 till 2001. I met my husband there and Irishman, married him and brought him home to Oklahoma almost 24 years ago. I love Ireland but I missed home and my boys, too much. I've been over to Europe when I was married before about six times and absolutely love the UK I wish I would have ventured out to France and Italy. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸 💖

Plenty of comments about the rain but give me the rain any day of the week over the dangerous shorching heat that people are suffering right now in Europe,we are blessed at the moment with all the rain keeping the gardens nice and green,i actually bought some sprinklers off Amazon a few weeks back as the grass in the garden was turning brown but now i dont need to😊we are due some hot weather which will probably come 2nd week in August 😮 and then we will say its too hot
@thecornerhouseproject Жыл бұрын
Oh yes most definitely! I lost count of the times I reseeded our lawn back in England for the heat to arrive and a hosepipe ban to come in and stop the watering of it! From about April the lawn would start to turn brown. I’m quite liking the rain, especially when you can see how green everything is because of it! Sounds great at night in the tent too!

Hi Sharon, thank you for being brave and going back to watch some poor sound and video quality early videos, it does improve though. Yes, drive on the left in Ireland which made it easy to drive over here having the same layout we are used to. As you can see in this video it was raining.... we don't think it has stopped yet haha. Thank you so much again :-) Have I said thank you for subscribing yet? If not.... THANK YOU very very much :-)

We were a few video uploads behind so I sat and edited each day so we could catch up. We have yesterday's one to edit and put up, but today is a big day pulling up floor boards so not sure we will get it done.
