    Should really be getting the cat's from the vet as Advocate suits her best, but is very expensive. It's going to have to be Frontline this time though as it's cheaper! The dog has Advocate from the vet but she's on a vet plan thing so included in the plan. The cat is officially DD's and she's meant to be signing her up for a pet plan at the vets but hasn't got round to it yet!

    Unbelievable - my almost brand new oven has literally just stopped working, saying error 6, which I've Googled and been unsuccessful in finding an answer. Having to finish off Mr SA's chicken in the combi microwave, thank goodness I've got that! He's now stressing about food poisoning! It was almost cooked anyway!

    Saving grace is that it's still under guarantee by a long shot.

    Really annoying though :(

    And the relaxing soak in the bath was scuppered by the rechargeable clip on light I use to read, so I don't have to have the big light on, needing recharging, then the batteries going in the radio that was playing my Christmas music :(:(

    These things are sent to try us.

    Even more unbelievably, the oven sprang back into life and is working perfectly again. On one hand I'm pleased, on the other wonder why it happened. Think I might still ring Howdens tomorrow as I can't risk this happening again.

    Anyway Mr SA and DD have enjoyed their Sunday roast. Plus my roast veg lasagne was lovely :)

  • Have you already bought the Frontline SA? I tend to use Advantage for my menagerie. Similar price but more effective in my opinion.

    Sun.A it must feel like you've been doing up your house for ever - is the new oven part of those works? Definitely 'phone the shop - bet there's a wire loose which is slipping in and out of position when the oven door is opened!
