quickly make a casaroll, over cook it to burn the edges then stick it in the washer to camofalge the oil stains and say that you were going to suprise her and it all went wrong (with a tear in your eye..) ... so then you get praied for thinking of her and cover up the mess in the washer ....
failing that .. it's been nice knowing you !  Poppy - TDCI (Puma) 110XS 2.2 - Camper conversion - see the build here - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic56530.html

Or you could use it for what you want then the proper intended use (dishes) after and say no more AT ALL

Once your tow hitch is clean, hide it in the garage, then when she comes home tell her that you had planned to load the dishwasher with plates but discovered the sorry state of the inside. Go balistic at her for not maintaining the machine in a proper manner and tell her how disappointed you are. "Dishwashers don't grow on trees" (that kind of thing).
Then you will have a clean towhitch and with a bit of luck a compensatory dinner to apologise to you. No need to thank me, but perhaps use a cricket box in your undies in case my plan isn't as fool proof as i hope. |

I thought I was a criminal master mind but you lot make me look like a sweet thief! I think I shall craft a story combining all of the above. It should make for an interesting tail 
Another 10 minutes and I shall be able to see the fuits of my labour and the state of the inside of the washer |

Chaps,
I would like to report that: a, tow hitch is immaculately clean b, Miele's finest survived the ordeal unscathed c, SWMBO isn't home yet And to top it off, the dishwaher is now emptied from the mornings post breakfast duties so it appears that I have been very helpfull
Now, off to stink the utility room out with Hammerite |

'to stop it flying around when its empty......'
seems like you have done well to get away with it. Not something i have ever thought of using though. Cheers James 110 2012 XS Utility 130 2011 M57 bespoke Camper 90 2010 Hardtop 90 M57 1988 Hardtop |

Mega
,
However i have just read this out to my missus with tears in my eyes and a decent ab's workout, then it dawned on me...... What a top idea mine could do with the same... However SWMBO now knows the score if the dishwasher happens to be empty tomorrow. Sweep
