Ever thought you've switched the kettle on for a brew and 20 minutes later were still stood there wondering why it was cold or not making that unmistakable noise? Cax

*whispers* your secret's safe with me, as long as you don't tell anyone about the time I was grilling sausages and the cooker caught fire, bringing TWO fire engines to our house (I'd put the fire out by then, though). Shhh. x I won't tell you either, that I've done that before, with a plug. x

Pile of ironing needed doing so unpacked new iron. The plug on the end of the iron would not fit into the wall socket. Try as I might it just would not go in. Put it to one side, son came home and I told him 'this new iron is useless I can't plug it in the plug on the iron is too big'. Son ( with friend present) looks at it and tells me ' you need to take the plastic covering off that protects the plug*. God I feel such a fool. Son and his friend look at each other I can imagine them thinking - women-. Pat
