I have to attend a beer festival on Thursday.

Sorry I fail to see why that, in any way, could be construed as a problem. ;D

Friday is a work day.  This may constrain the number of beers that can be errr ummm tested.

Yebbut what's wrong with the fridge?

Bread goes stale quickest at fridge temperatures; I don't have my copy of McGee to hand, but there is some SCIENCE regarding the starches and such that explains it. Re-heating refreshes it, but obviously dries it out some more.

Yes, I understand that is the case. Our bread isn't in the fridge long enough to go stale but long enough in room temp bread crock to go mouldy.

AEG dishwasher not done its stuff overnight (on Economy 7), showing error code i30.  Washed up by hand whilst SWMBO hid under duvet having heard the verbals from the kitchen when the Full English (only on a Sunday) should have been in production.

Googles error code.  Anti-flood device triggered.  Solutions offered.

Large dog drying towel (towel, not dog) spread on kitchen floor.  DW tipped back.  Water now all over floor.  Reset error code and gave it a test.  Seems OK, but having coffee and cake whilst it does its thing.

Or should this be in What have I fettled today.....?

No. Leave it here because it's causing my sax practice to be postponed.  And my model aeroplane fettling.  Must be a First World problem in that case.

I think our new cleaner is trolling us with her tidying up. We got used to towels in the spare room. This week we had clean bottles for recycling in with the breakfast cereal.

My mother does not DO recipes, EVER.

I think she slices it about 1cm thick, dips it in egg, followed by matzo meal (you could use breadcrumbs, ± seasoning) and fries it...
