Unbalanced Vision

Opera browser has crashed again, though this time the fault is solely on my part. For some stupid reason I downloaded it twice, thinking that a newer version has came out. Equally annoying is that I'd have to reorganise the big collection of urls, which will take ages to sort out. Also noticed that our mini washing machine is constantly running, the second electrical appliance in the flat being on most of the time. The first place goes to the TV set, of course. You throw in two pair of jeans and it's full; you press the button, and it takes a moment to whirr into action. Maybe this is a Europe thing? Little E says the one at home, you dump in suitcases of clothing, and after 15-20 minutes or so, they come out crispy clean.
