Life is riddled with a procession of minor impediments

[Albion]

Got really fed up trying to buy a new cooker after ours went up in flames at the weekend. Looks like Tesco are going to be the closest to our insurance claim for what we want.

Have you ever thought of buying a secondhand replacement ??

Thats what i would be doing but it does depend on how your insurance company is handling the claim and if you are simply being given a cheque to spend as you please.A lot of insurance companies stipulate this or that or the other but generally speaking you get a lot more for your money if you buy something nearly new.

Sorted now, just got to wait for delivery and installation. Insurance company were quite good and sorted it quickly. We'd rather have new than secondhand. Having seen one go up in flames I don't want to get a used cooker that might be unsafe. At least we acted quickly and efficently and no one was hurt and very little damage was done.
Just got a bit fed up visiting three major retailers to look at three different cookers they have online but only one model was in one shop. Mrs Albion likes to look at what she is buying, this is fair enough as she does all the cooking. In the end we got a cooker we looked at in Comet online from Tesco for £26 less than Currys and £61 less than Comet!

I believe CrazyFoxMachine knows someone who can help with that very problem!

My fish tank burst and dumped 50 litres of water on my carpet.

And my socks keep getting wet.

and to get back on track...

misery guts,our neighbour only comes round when she wants something usually involving money,this time its fence panels the best one was when she wanted to put a fence up at the front its an open plan estate so everyone going to her house goes up our drive to get to hers house even though they have to pass her driveway/path to do so,it would just mean they have to pass beneath her window we declined and came home to a monstrosity of a wrought iron fence that goes halfway down the drive with gold tips on it and i swear the "craftsman " who made it was pissed when he painted it.

A loose bit of toenail that has been giving me some grief has been involuntarily torn off after I banged it on something. ouch.

[M.I.K.]

I almost ate a pea-sized poppy head that was hidden among the peas in a Birds Eye chicken dinner.

[Roger Godpleton]

I have cramp in my toes or something.

I made a sausage casserole and left the oven on all night.

So that's 12 hours @ 180^o = Fucking huge electricity bill. At least the kitchen was toasty warm as I made my breakfast.
