She looked like a deer in the headlights as it was, don't frighten her more.

Venison wouldn't be traditional though.

I tried to put some beer in the fridge.

The door fell off. It was only four cans, FFS! BTW, the fridge is a Bosch, cost £450, and it's out of warranty.

Utter bastards.

We were treated to some Hungarian goulash soup, made by a genuine Hungarian person.

I suggested I make something British next time but she suddenly remembered a pressing appointment...

Shepherds Pie................................................ first peel 2 shepherds.

Sigh... That's almost Goon Show standard.

I'll be sleeping on our balcony tonight, in the hope it'll be a bit less oven like than the bedroom.

Worse than that it's the 'Goodies', I checked.

Oh dear! Did the hinges give way ?

The Guardian website has just decided I'm in Hackney. It'll be 16 degrees at 02:00, apparently. No rain forecast.

What about 01:00?
@Andy in Germany is an hour in front.

The hinge is a stamped piece of steel but it mates with a piddling nylon (?) insert in the door. The nylon insert gets ground away on the lower hinge over time. The door sinks...….and pops out of the top hinge.
It's a crap piece of design by Bosch.

The door is currently being held in place by a chair loaded with four bricks.

The inserts are normally replacable.

Why not use a 3/16 1/8" nylon washer, until you get the proper insert.

For spare parts I use espares.co.uk

You will need the model number of your fridge.

Thanks. I've already come up with some bonkers jury rig ideas. It's not a big deal but it pisses me off that Bosch has an undeserved reputation for reliability.

Would you prefer the insert or the whole door to fail though?
