I dont have a timer that i'm aware of Denise? The hot water tank is in LOs room behind a locked door and no-one has been in there at all lately. Hopefully it was just a little hiccup...The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0

Well I've just tried the repaired lid for my Food Processor, and it doesn't fit on anymore. The hot melt glue is in the way, so I've scoured the internet and found that the cheapest replacement lid is £10.95. Bit annoyed that it costs that much just for a lid, but hey, it's ordered now, and seeing as the FP was a gift, I don't have a receipt etc to get a free replacement. Anyway, if it breaks again, at least I know that I could make a fortune selling it for parts.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170
