Just in case you are interested, it turned out that snails had slithered up
the outlet pipe, been killed by the soapy water, and the shells were blocking
the outlet. Thus whenever it went into the spin cycle the water couldn't
escape fast enough and came pouring back in. Erk.

How did the meeting go?

Domesticly yours,
Jim
