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

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
