Back to the subject tho' of things that annoy one a little bit . .
Saucepans !
Didn't the prat who invented them foresee the dishwasher ?
You have to put them in open side down to wash them but then the handle recess, used to get to the screw that holds it together, fills up with water !

No doubt built by the Japs as well?

Loved Mrs Mangle. The woman who played her was one of those Australian actresses of a certain age, who was obviously trained that, in order play a sophisticated and dignified character, you had to affect a slightly weird English accent and take long pauses for no apparent reason.

Top tip from a housewife; as you empty the diswasher turn the saucepans over first so they've had time to drain before you take them out.
Mr. Fisher on Home and Away was like that too!
