I work on the bases that if cleaning anything is more complex than drinking a glass of water it's just not worth doing

If it's German it shouldn't go wrong; Foursprung Duck Technique and all that.

Today, the postman delivered an envelope from Bosch UK!
Contents: 1 dishwasher manual. Here's the skinny on Bosch: in what seems to be an increasingly common practice, they produce one manual for multiple products. In this case, it appears that they produce one manual for...all their dishwashers! At least, so far as I can see, 'cos there's no mention of model numbers on the front or inside, and it's got all those nice, clear asterisks throughout that say *some models. (*Which* ing models, though? Does it apply to this one or not?)
So why couldn't Bosch (UK) send you this in the first place? I think the prohibitive cost of first-class post to Luxembourg may have been your downfall. Also, the "we don't market that model in the UK" argument holds even less water than before...
Anyway, I shall hand-deliver said item within the next fortnight.

Will you indeed!
How exciting
You are a honey - nothing says "I love you" like a dishwasher manual, eh?

Well it'd have been even cuter if he'd remembered to bring the darn manual on his last visit....
(But it was great to see him, dishwasher manual or no.)
Actually, now my tumble drier's gone on the blink
