    Just back from cricket. We are starving.

    Oven (installed in April) is not working, and the posh induction hob is just beeping!

    Not amused - it's already cost £25 as we have just phoned for pizza delivery!


    keep the receipt and threaten them with a claim for the cost of delivered hot food if they don't play ball;)

    Valli - once again thanks for your input this week.

    Glad to hear you are going nowhere!

    And now it's time for bed. Have found oven/hob guarantee. Let's hope firm lives up to it's reputation for service...

    SO infuriating when you have supplied cream - maybe DD needs to be made aware of risks of skin cancer?

    I've told her tonight that it increases the risk of cancer but I think she was too tired for it to go in properly. Problem is all her dads side of the family tan and 'sun worship' quite a bit while wearing cream, whereas although she usually has her dads skin and tans, if she's out in it too long she'll burn. I remember taking her up to the Lakes when she was 4 months old, I smothered her in cream and she still caught the sun across the back of her legs as she was in a sling and the umbella we were using as a parasol mustn't have quite covered her as well as we thought. I've been paranoid about her wearing cream ever since. :o I'll try again tomorrow morning, maybe with a bit of internet image searches to help reinforce the message home.

    I'm still suffering with mine and I'm blistering now despite cold compresses, baths, moisturiser (I didn't have any aftersun left until DD got home) and loads to drink :eek: Yesterdays plans were supposed to be postponed until Tuesday, I may have to postpone them further at this rate. :( Although I am now itchy as well so I'm hoping thats a good sign and if I do itch I'm checking gently with my finger tips first that there is no blisters in the area :o:o
