Apologies to the SE of England
I would like to apologise to anyone in the SE and Anglia who is having a problem with their drains this evening! You'll be pleased to hear my mother who is 82 has finally gone home. She has been here since Wednesday. She is not too good at reading sell by dates and as a treat!!! made us a Christmas trifle.
I swear everytime I opened the fridge it spoke to me (either that or the greengrocer has been selling the wrong mushrooms again!) Anyway after she went my husband donned gloves and a visor and tipped it down the toilet. Well I'm sorry but the toilet has been gurgling ever since and we are getting a backflow of 'hundreds and thousands', Our neighbours have knocked and asked if we knew why thr drain cover in the road was glowing green!! I therefore apologise to anyone affected, at least you didn't have to eat it. Rosie

you will be pleased to know that the drains have stopped gurgling, no sign of any hundreds and thousands for a couple of hours now.
I have emailed Hans Blitz as I think I have found the missing WMD in my mother's fridge, she has enough dodgy cream and mayonaise to wipe out half of Europe. Happy New year Rosie

I had a trifle disaster this crimbo....
 Got a Birds trifle, made it up as directed and then added some Sherry. Then hubbs added some because i couldn't remember if i'd put any in. Then drained a tin of fruit cocktail and added that. Consequently the bloody thing wouldn't set. So... put it all in a pan - melted it down, and added more Jelly crystals. My logic was that if i added more Jelly crystals and no water then the bloody thing would become thicker and set. Nope. I ended up with a gloopy mess that smelled grim. I too flushed it down the lav, so apologies to any Welsh bat's who have been noticing a foul smell - was me trifle...... I never said i was Delia Smith.... |
