Have you tried turning it on then off again?

If so, try it the other way round.

I have asked my local expert and she says that you have to check the beaters (whatever they are) are properly stuck in.

Granny, please follow this step-by-step guide and I'll have your mixer up and running in no time at all:

1) Check fuse (this doesn't mean unscrewing the plug cover and saying, "Yep, there's one there," you have to check it still works by replacing it with one you know to be working, like the one in the iron.)

2) If fuse ok, refit plug cover and plug it in (this bit is essential as it needs power to make it go whirrr, whirrr, chop, chop)

3) Check beater/chopper/slicey thing is seated properly (but remember not to switch it on as kitchens don't look good in Hint of Bloodsplash, although I'm sure B&Q can mix the right shade for you so you can paint the whole room in the same colour - you only have 8 pints of blood you see and you need 4 of them at least or you'll pass out and die)

4) Switch it on.

5) Switch it off.

6) Switch it back on again.

7) Switch it back off again.

8) Look at manual (I know this is an alien concept, you being a wumun n all, but they do contain some useful information. Besides, it makes you feel like you know what you're doing and your girlfriends will be really really impressed.)

9) Switch it on - again.

10) Look at the machine bemusedly.

11) Yell: "bloody work you fucker!"

12) Cry.

13) Phone best mate and tell her the fucking world is shit.

14) Go for a bath.

15) Go to bed.

16) Wake up.

17) Do NOT enter kitchen, the scene of your almost mental breakdown.

18) Get dressed, go to town.

19) Locate nearest Currys

20) Buy a toaster. (I know you *want* a mixer, but the toasters will be on special offer and you won't be able to resist it)

Sorted.

Tis a cordless phone and as I'm addressing females I used the word 'dial' because most phones don't work when waved about like a wii fit handheld device. One has to press buttons for it to respond. Granted most women have any device capable of vibrating on auto self dial but then fixing a mixer would be furthest from the onw brain cell currently engaged elsewhere.

It's the short thing that blows when you have encountered too many idiots in a short space of time.
