WANTED Twin Tub Washing Machine in good working order

Sandi from Hurunui District

I have limited water in summer and a flow rate too slow for modern machines to activate. I therefore need to find an old fashioned twin tub washing machine. BUT.. I got one off Trade Me that works BUT whilst the washer is a good size the spin drier "hole" is small. I can get a queen sheet in the washer OK but not in the spinner. Does anhonehave a late model twin tub that has a decent capacity spinner? I bought a new Haier chinese made piece of c**p. The size of OK BUT the lint filter broke after a few uses, it wont ger spinning most of the time it harbours dirty stinking water that comes back into the washer even if you have emptied it out there is always some left. A good old F & P with the right size spinner capacity is all I need then I can have clean clothes that are not stretched out of shape by my current Chinese model that covers everything in link ! Can anyone help? WAs there a guy in Woodend that did old machines up? I am sure there was an article in the paper about him but that was a good while ago

Dog sitter wanted

Sylvia from Kaiapoi

Hi there peoples sometime ago Hubby and I with our golden labrador who is nine Maxi, was talking to somebody in coffee culture now it could have been over a year ago just wondered if you are out there or does anybody else take on dog sitting in their home? We are off overseas for four weeks and end July to end August our usual home based doggy sitter is unable to help us during this time. Maxi is very placid and laid back she is the first dog to roll over, lie on her back and say … you can be the boss! LOL Maxi is not really an outside dog she sleeps inside our house bus with us and is with us all the time as we are now retired. appreciate anybody who loves dogs. Will have a few play dates before we go and that way you can be happy if you volunteer and so can we, there will be some payment compensation.
Regards Sylvia
