    Right I'm back from the pub, didn't dare tell anyone of my misfortune, someone would grass. I do hope in some posts there are spelling mistakes. Yes I left this muck on longer than I should have because I was cooking dinner for the family and I was distracted, which in fact turned out to be a lovely lancashire hot pot, but my wife would not give me any brownie points for this as I said she was eating out.
    So far so good, she has not come down stairs yet and I can't hear any screaming. Now my problem is I never drive the next morning after drinking so she always takes the car to work, so I need to find someone who can get me the same fridge/freezer before Thursday 5pm.
    As for getting my kids to do paintings to cover the doors, good idea but as the youngest is 21 the idea didn't go down to well.
    I think on this one I will be a man!! and lie..Never touched it, dont know what your talking about, it wasn't very good anyway, it was the wrong size, it was ok the last time I saw it. in the end she will believe me.
    She doen't look on this forum so say what you like.
    But even in my hour of need I have enjoyed the banter with some of you guys.

    Aww, you're not really going to buy a new fridge/freezer, are you? Is she really as frightening as that.

    I came home one day to a rather sheepish husband. He told me not to be mad but he'd had a wee accident. I couldn't do anything for laughing. :rotfl:

    Flipping heck - how strong IS that stuff????? :eek:


    I would prob be grateful to OH for cleaning/defrosting fridge freezer and I would just laugh it off. Stuff happens, least it's not in full view eh.

    Can't you just be honest instead of sneakily replacing it???? I would be more annoyed at my OH for covering up tbh.

    Me too. I'd be more annoyed that he'd spent a few £100's on a new fridge/freezer. As it's not in the kitchen only your family will see it surely?

    OMG I am crying with laughter at this thread!!:rotfl::rotfl:
    It's nearly as good as the "daughter caught us having sex one"...can we nominate it for post of the week or something??


    amerste~ in all seriousness don't go spending money on a new one, at least write to cilit bang and tell them off, then write to the maker of the freezer and complain your child could have choked on the peeling paint!! (they don't need to know youngest is 21!)
    Cilit bang may even reward you for pointing out the amazing properties of their product......which one was it anyway as my oven door is in a right state and can't get anything to shift it!

    He'd been cutting down a tree. That was him. :D I was driving down the street at the back of the house a day or 2 later and saw a red suit up the big tree in the photo. He was like a monkey. :rotfl: I got a new twirly out of it though. He didn't have any choice. He killed that one good and proper.

    My father-in-law (my husband is 44 btw) wouldn't let him get a chainsaw. Dh had to cut all those trees down with a £3odd bowsaw from B&Q.
