The Appliance of Science

After successfully purchasing a replacement freezer after theirs spontaneously combusted (not to mention a 32" TV for the bedroom which must have myseteriously fallen into Billy Idle's basket on the way to the till) the Regulars lamented the undeniable truth that household appliances are simply not built to last like in the old days.


Billy Idle felt that he must protest at this, however, declaring that his hoover had been in excellent working order for some 10 years now.


To which the Regulars reminded him that said items did actually have to be put to some occasional use if they were ever to enter the danger zone of wearing out.
