You might be onto something with the industrial washer Leanne LOL. Although mine is a 4.5kg simpson and it hasn't skipped a beat till now and I've had it for 11yrs this year, so I think I will get another one. A pink party sounds gorgeous!

Marydean, I know! I bet Miss E was surprised at herself LOL. I loved Ruth, or Ruthie preferrably, as a name too, but my Nan's name is Ruth and she would have cracked it as she hates the idea of family names LMAO. Not worth the grief at all Another one I loved was Agnes (to be Aggie) and Edie but DH thought they were *too* old.
