  • Before my son turned up and took me out for a meal I'd planned a fry up and put a spud in the microwave to cook for a couple of minutes to be ready for frying later. I heard a bang and assumed the spud had exploded even though I'd pierced it with a fork first. No. It was the glass turntable which has split in half. I've since found out this can happen if the glass has a fault in it. The microwave is fairly new so I now have to source a new turntable.

              • 1. How quickly and easily a child can disappear out of your site and also not answer to you calling Bless her she was only trying to be helpful by opening the door for someone. Still scared the bejesus out of me!

                2. Going on a site to buy a new washing up bowl, find myself looking at gardening stuff and next I am adding dahlia tubers Thankfully they have all been removed.

                    You can do that with a phone?

                    The fix worked anyway, thanks Greenleaves.

                        • Signed up to BeaTties call protect service - great! Wanted to add a number to it today (some lumphead who rang 4 times and just said "can you hear me?" to which I kept answering "Hello? Hello?" till he got tired of it and rang off ), and it took me half an hour to find a link to the page I needed. If you offer a service, put a bladdy link to it where I expect to find it - on the callprotect page, numpties!

                            • Mothhawk, there is supposed to be a scam going round at the moment where the caller uses just that phrase so they can record you saying yes, for what devious purpose I know not.
