Just bought a dishwasher (finally)… Compact model as the cupboard doesn't fit a regular model... Delivery on Saturday... No more doing the dishes... 

Plus, because it has some scratches on the top, there was a 110 € discount, same warranty service provided of course... It'll be placed inside the cupboard so I won't even see the "damage"...

a dishwasher for your kinda dishes? you´s a lazy mofo

one dirty plate and one dirty glass a day and Eli goes out to buy a dishwasher

It's mainly my brother who knows how to accumulate dirty plates/ glasses/ jars/ cutlery/… Put that man in a vacuum, two by two room and he'll have it dirty within 30 seconds...

I've had a self-imposed exile from this forum. The last couple of weeks I've been looking at it again in a more positive light.

There are some beautiful people amongst all this, and i know that there a few particularly dedicated ones who work hard to keep it all on track.

Keep it fun, keep it light.

That's my little sister Lucy…..

Dates: 18 April 2013, 30 October 2013
Venue: Barlow Shed, St Pancras International London
Country: UK
Type: Public sculpture commission

A suspended meeting place, the sky is the agora of our imagination.

On April 18, 2013 Lucy + Jorge Orta unveil their monumental work Cloud | Metéoros at St Pancras International. As part of a new initiative titled Terrace Wires, the artists have been selected to create the very first public sculpture to be suspended in the Barlow Shed of the Eurostar terminal. The artwork will be a cardinal welcome to the nearly one million visitors to the station each week.

Floating amid the glass-vaulted architecture of the historic Barlow Shed, Cloud | Metéoros resembles vast cumuli populated with travellers, a ‘magic carpet’ taking passengers on an imaginary journey in the skies. It also carries a more political message. The cloud calls into question how mankind will share the vital resource of water on earth.

Meteoros is a word derived from ancient Greek, meaning raised from the ground, suspended, lofty or in the midst. Clouds have long been intercessors between reality and the imagination, between heaven and earth, lightness and gravity. They inhabit the skies of Renaissance fresco paintings, often depicted crowded with laymen and prophets, angels and deities. Throughout history, this celestial vault has been a site of conviviality, of learning and exchange.

Terrace Wires is an initiative by HS1 Limited. This ambitious project finds its home in London alongside other annual public art commissions, including the Fourth Plinth, Turbine Hall at Tate Modern and the summer pavilion at Serpentine Gallery.

Nice. I'm using St Pancras tomorrow on my way to God's own city (that's right, Sheffield) and will check it out in person.

Just gonna make 3 points about this forum
1. I might be biased, but I really love the marketplace, the items and the people who sell it are great. (Only a few bad apples but I don't think they spoiled the bunch)
2. Tight community and very inviting
3. Good customer service (Can't ask for anything else)
