Just what every Sunday Morning should have. A thread, laced with LSD. I have not got a clue what I've just read. 👍 For You, Corned Beef Legs: I wash garments, towels etc in a laundry room shared by 30 households, one household at a time can use it. My time is Sundays 16.00-21.00 every third week. Someone goes down and starts one of the two washing machines at 20.45 but doesn't put any clothes in it! This has happened now 5 times since the end of May. I can't tell yet who it is, because it happens when I'm not there obviously. During my time. One empty machine. We're not allowed to use the washing machines after 8 pm. What would you have done? |

I've just been there now ...
putting some garments and towels into the two washing machines - during MY time.
It was a sporty brunette there watching me putting my underwear into one of the two washing machines.
"Do they smell?", I asked.
She just giggled.
Then she went. When I got out of there a short rather young girl was in the staircase.
I've never seen either of these females before.

Can't have been me after all, I was out walking the goldfish. And in a different country. Decent enough alibi there, I think. I was going to suggest installing a hidden camera, but after your meeting with the two young ladies that might land you in hotter water than your clothes. Perhaps an inflatable tiger in front of the washers with a motion- sensor activated tape recorder that says "I'm watching you" in Albanian. If occurrences still happen that would at least rule out my former hostel mate. The power of the Oatcake will prevail. Between us, we'll nail him / her / it. |

Perhaps the tiger would be too aggressive a move. We want you to identify the culprit, Musik, but above all we don't want you to come to any harm. No need to upset an obviously deranged lunatic.
I wouldn't alert the authorities for now, it might be them doing it. I once had a landlord that kept pinching my baked beans.
Set a trap, but in a nice, non-confrontational way. Maybe leave a few tempting items on top of the washer next time and see if any go missing. I'd start with a slice of chocolate cake, a pair of nasal hair clippers and a framed photo of Dame Thora Hird. No baked beans - the lack of a tin opener might tip the miscreant over the edge.
Whatever goes missing, that's a disparate enough selection to be able to begin narrowing down your search.
Of course, this might all turn out to have a happy ending. It could be the young lady from the bus, too shy to speak to you but desperate to attract your attention.
Fingers crossed for you. Stay alert but stay safe.

Incidentally most British households with a washing machine keep it in the kitchen. When I moved to the continent I was surprised to find this isn’t a universal thing. 😁 That's right. In Sweden I think there are some rules against it. You can even be denied to install a dish washer sometimes here. It has something to do with the tube dimension. Many people I know here in Sweden find it disgusting to do the laundry in the same area where you prepare food and eat. Myself have not thought about it that way. Some swedes put their socks in the microwave oven every now and then, if they've become sweaty. Now THAT's disgusting! I've been to England three times and I found real(!) wooden floor (not plastic woodprinted one) in bathrooms at two different B&Bs. It was very odd! In Sweden there are strict regulations against that. The oddest thing about my whole thread is this: Why doesn't he/she put any garments into the washing machine at all? If he/she at least had done that. Tomorrow hopefully I'll get the answer.🤞 I’m no Columbo or Jack Mooney but you say that it is in your contract to clean the washing machine after use. So could it be that the person with the previous slot is running the machine on empty in order to wash the machine through not realising they are encroaching on your time slot? |

So could it be that the person with the previous slot is running the machine on empty in order to wash the machine through not realising they are encroaching on your time slot? Possibly. Our schedule is: 1) 08.00-12.00 Laundry room plus 08.00-13.00 Drying room 2) 12.00-16.00 Laundry room plus 13.00-17.00 Drying room 3) 16.00-20.00 Laundry room plus 17.00-21.00 Drying room But why start the empty machine at 20.45, and not in time at 14.45? 🤔 |

Noone is supposed to be there during my time anyway, especially if I did put it in the locked drying room - where the time booking isn't ... About losing things ... I lost some great italian towels there once, but it was several years ago. Then I should have had that spy camera. |

Have you relayed these happenings to the relevant authorities Actually I'm not sure, the more I think of it. It was this girl in the staircase yesterday, you see. "I must get rid of him", she said on the mobile phone several times. Black hair. But maybe she went on about abortion or something? She must have been. What would be the relayed authorities here? The police wouldn't do anything. The wouldn't even know what to call it. The rental management company that manages the house doesn't take any precautions, installing cameras or whatever. And the owner seems to be a greedy and/or "poor" bastard - except being the owner of this building, but apart from that ... Once the knobs of my 35 year old stove all finally were too badly cracked. I thought I could get my stove replaced because of its age. Instead I had to wait for 3 months for some other odd knobs from a closed factory somewhere in the former eastern Germany, he said. He wasn't joking even though I thought so ... |

I have the perfect solution.
And I am more than willing to come over and assist.
Brunette you say...love em.
Anyway.
When her machine stops steal a pair of her knickers and a bra.
Then next day line all the females up and instruct them to strip.
The ask each one to try on the bra and knickers, and obviously you will need close examination to check for a good fit, and which ever one they fit, then she is the culprit.
It worked for the handsome prince in the Cinderella story.
One word of caution though, maybe assess the approx size prior to carrying out this operation, the last thing you want is for them to be belonging to a heffer like our KFC girl Dolores.
