    Good afternoon all, am preparing to attack remains of turkey so I can clean out the oven which looks like the aftermath of Hiroshima. Might just have another mince pie before I start, though. Then there's my other Blackadder DVD to watch, my new mobile phone to play with......decisions decisions.....I suppose I could coat the inside of the oven with something lethal and wash it off tomorrow.......Kim and Aggie use dishwasher detergent, might give it a try. Oh, forgot there's a little Tatco order to do - have a voucher for £5 off if I spend over £50 so could refill the freezer I suppose.....Yippee can use voucher online so no need to venture outside......I love it when a plan comes together......see you later people!

    Afternoon people

    Numpty - get on to your landlord or the gas board or a plumber. Potential boiler problems should be taken seriously. I went into Home Bargains here today for batteries but my local one didn't have any CO alarms.

    Sounds like the oven can wait Nargle - much more christmasy things to do and it'll still be waiting for you tomorrow!

    Rog hope the trundling is okay today, the snow here is finally melting and its an almost warm 5degrees here.

    Horace - sorry you were present-less on christmas day, hope you've received some now and hope santa bought everyone something nice.

    Another shopping oops from me - this year I was determined not to go to shopping in the sales but accidentally clicked to M&S via quidco last night.

    Hello and Season's Greetings to All
    A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give

    A "what are you doing on page 2" type of BUMP from me.

    Numpty, really pleased you're feeling a bit better, keep the window open though, even just a little bit. You need to get fresh air in if there's any danger of CO being present. Hope you enjoyed the drink...

    Nargle, I'm with Tixy, oven can definitely wait. Enjoy the turkey, mince pies, Blackadder DVD and playing with new mobile first - that would definitely be my plan.

    Snow nearly gone here as well today, downside though it it's rained most of the day :mad:, oh well, back to normal I suppose.

    Hope everyone's had a nice relaxing day today.

    Good morning Numpty and Rog, hope you are both well today?

    Hi to everyone else, frosty but not so bright now here.

    An "I'm off to brave the shops now":(:( type of BUMP from me.

    Back later (if I survive, that is!)

    I had my carbon monoxide detector from B&Q. You can also get small stick on ones that go on your fire or combi boiler etc. They have a circle in the middle that changes colour if there's Carbon monoxide present. Hope this helps!

    Just read the rest of your story numpty. Blimey!

    Glad to hear you're feeling better.
