    Email her back and say..

    'I'd much rather you came to collect it.. then we can have a catch up and a gossip. I've been so busy lately and not seen you etc etc etc.. It would be good to have some time off from everything else. Besides.. it is probably cheaper for you to come collect it and have coffee and bickies than for me to post it!'

    With big smiley face and some hugs.. if she says no just post it aftr that.. vomit in it and let the cat pee on it (do it yourself and blame the non-existant cat if you have to) and send it back.. AFTER you have the money for posting!!


    Lol, i was thinking poo rather than pee or vomit but they would work well toogross.gif

  • 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...

    Ohh, hope it was, I think the plumbing gremlin has been out lately, hope he's left you alone now :) - it was just when you said it heated up of a night - ours did that as we were on economy 7 - apparently there is a timer thing that makes it come on then and it was set wrong...
