Hmmm - use a coat hanger to break it up next time.

One of the rat roads between Hitchin and Stevenage. No idea what it's called - but it's screwed several people at the company up. When it's open - one of the guys I work with lives 5 minutes drive away - now it's shut it's made his journey around 45 minutes.... It's mental.

No and no....

a

Wii and Mario kart has been moved into my playroom which isn't too badly effected by aerial oil. Krispy Creme was consumed quickly while hunting for stuff to put under the heater to catch the oil - which is still coming out. I don't waste cinnamon buns. Wish I had another one now.

We have also found the guarantee for the heater - 4 years 4 months old - and has a 5 year guarantee.

Out of curiosity, what sort of oil heater?

(just to reduce the chances of that happening to me if I use mine - which I don't do very often fortunately).

Definitely take the day off.

Sadly - I'm posting this from work....

ARSE!

We have one, ONE!!! person off ill so I HAVE to be in work today.
Well - ok, but I'm gong to do very little.

As for the heater type Mark, it was a DeLonghi - the older version of this one.

On the other hand - it's warm at work - no heating at home where it's sodding cold!

Mark · 18-04-2008, 09:51

Oh lovely. That's precisely the one I have. Noted. :/

It's my backup 'if all else fails' job though, so currently in a cupboard. I'll be sure to inspect it before next use.

We've got a guy here who likes being ill. You can pretty much guarantee if there's an emergency and you have to take the day off he will have called in sick already. Happened to me twice now, once with a death and the other time when I was genuinely very ill and shouldn't have been in work or driving.

Well - flat is still a greasy ****hole!

Not allowed to take any time off for the next 3 weeks - the flat is pretty much unlivable. Tomorrow, I'm asking if they will put me up in a hotel and pay for meals.

However, yesterday - a girls pet croaks, and she had yesterday and today off...

**** it!
