So I had to fit a gas hob today. My mate is gas safe so no problem there. But upon preparing the site for him I had to remove the fitted oven.

I only went and dropped the fucking thing and smashed the door to pieces. So off to currys and as luck would have it they have one in stock. But when attempting to wire it up I pushed the neutral holding through its compartment so had to go digging around for it. And to top it all off the new oven is a couple of mil out so I can't secure it.

Bollocks to it all. I'm off down the pub.

Annoying true, but if that's the worst that your month gets, it's not been bad'

Bollox - i know how you feel. I sold a flat to a guy once that really loved the ceramic hob i had, wouldn't stop talking about it. It came to the day before the removals van came and I was cleaning out the kitchen cupboards - i only went and dropped a tin of beans on it - smash... thousands of bits. Buggered if i was gonna replace like for like - he got a bargain basement ring hob from Currys i hastily arranged the next day... sorry dude!!

good. By the time I got back I was smiling at how blonde I am sometimes, no point crying over it. Plus it gave me a chance to zoom about in my new car for an extra 22 miles

I fitted an induction hob for a couple about ten years ago when they first came on the market...

About 7 o'clock that night they rang telling me they can't get it to heat up ...so I spent 30 minutes telling them it doesn't heat up and won't work unless there's a pan on it......30 minutes later there back on the phone.... Tried the pan still won't work.... I said that's odd I tried it before I left, it defo worked, drove to their house 20 mins away now 9 o'clock missing the film I was watching and the pub... They've got copper bottomed pans!!.. I was livid

.. Lol this is what got me in the trouble the first place lol.... What I should have explained is that induction Hobs only work with iron pans.

They basically magnetically agitate the iron element in the pan causing the pan to get hot(there's no heat from the hob itself).... I just figured there'd bought the dammed thing and would have known... Turns out they just liked the look of it in John Lewis

I don't believe this. The rag n bone man collected the oven a few minutes ago (no free goldfish). I've only gone and left all the baking trays in there. Mrs P is gonna kill me.

I'm off back down the pub.
