Big brouhaha over Kirsty Allsop saying having a washing machine in a kitchen is "disgusting". Clearly she has a big house with a scullery. But seriously, what's the big fucking deal?

Where's your washing machine then?

In the bathroom. But that's normal here. In our old place the outlet pipe wasn't plumbed in and we just ran a specially designed hose into the toilet bowl (again this is pretty normal)
My parents' machine being in a normal British house, is in the kitchen. I don't find either of these things odd. And to be honest I don't think I've ever really thought about it before.
Mind you I am the sort of person who simply doesn't care if the toilet roll hangs down the front or the back, or which order the knife-fork-spoon sections are in the cutlery drawer. Things which clearly drive some people to distraction

I'm sure I've pointed this out before, but the UK regulations for plug sockets actually seem pretty inconsistent as there is one right next to our sink in the kitchen.Last edited by Fussbudget; 12-07-2017, 14:49. Reason: How bloody embarassing that I can't spell hairdryer or embarrassing

I believed for a long time (because my cousin had told me so) that Claude François had died of electrocution by playing the electric guitar in the bath. Imagine my surprise etc.
