    Good morning!:)

    I am having the nightmare that every true glitcher dreads:eek::eek:

    FAILURE of my big freezer, which is full to the top!!:mad::mad:

    But fortunately Currys had one the same size, maybe slightly larger, at a very good price and they are delivering it today:j:j

    Now the unpleasant task of removing everything from the old one and trying to keep it frozen until the new one arrives.

    I am just wondering what I might find at the very bottom:eek:

    So far I have found two joints of Bubbs beef about half way down.:o:o

    Cant you leave the stuff in it, it will keep frozen for hours in the old one, it works like a huge cool box, and the new one will need settling before you switch it one Squigs.

    OMG, how awful! Mind you, this is precisely why I went for one that is capable of keeping everything frozen for 81 hours in a power cut :D

    When I was changing mine I put everything I could into cool bags and the rest of the stuff was in carrier bags piled together in the corner of a room, seemed to mostly keep itself frozen :D Newspaper is a good insulation :D

    I have made the assumption that you are having the old one taken away? If not then leave it in the freezer for a while :D

    I should just video my whole life.......I coukd keep loads of people happy :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Had to have a conversation with DS2 tonight about why he shouldn't fiddle with his diddle in a room full of people :eek: not being rude....but I did. It's my real life :( and it's always left to me. And being what he is, a full explanation is needed :o..........so that was fun :o

    I should not laugh but :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    In public, this seriously is my pet hate… men putting their hands down their pants…. what do they think they are doing.

    We was in a pub grub establishment yesterday, at the table behind us a lad around 18.. had his hands down his pants. In these situation I cannot keep quiet… I use a little humour and sarcasm and when he took his hands out of his pants I insist he go and wash his hands…. yuck! The lads parents were :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Unfortunately, I have to empty it as they take it away for free, plus it is in an outbuilding and there is only room for the one freezer.:(

    I thought with modern freezers, you no longer have to leave them for a certain length of time before switching on?
