Lol, I was so engrossed in reading about Vicks that I forgot I was only supposed to be on the computer for 3 minutes while the frankfurters were simmering for a pasta salad. You can guess what happened. I smelt burning from the kitchen, opened the kitchen door and it was like dense fog. The pan had boiled dry. So much smoke so had to open the window and put the extractor fan on. I will need another pan now as I only have one pan left and it is not a non-stick one!

It's ok. I am giggling too. My whole flat smells awful even with all the windows open and having used almost half a can of air freshener!

Grrrr my flat still smells awful even with the windows open overnight and at the moment. The smoke's smell seems to have got into the furnishings. Thank goodness I remembered about the pan, albeit too late for my last non-stick pan not to mention the packet of Tival frankfurters but I have another six packets in the freezer. I use the cocktail ones, simmered for 3 minutes (not half an hour!), cut them in half and mixed them with cold cooked pasta shells and stuffed green olives with a dash of garlic mayonnaise. Yummy!

You and everyone else. I just completely forgot about the pan because I was reading articles on the net how Vicks rubbed on the soles of the feet helps coughs and congestion. How's your cold by the way? bouquet

Yash124g: Hopefully the following will help Wow..
laugh That video reminds me of way back in 1998 when someone had the very misguided idea that I'd want to go and see Lighthouse Family at Hull Ice arena. So, there I was stuck with two tickets which were only worth 25 quid so I advertised them for sale and a bloke contacts me saying he'd give me 100 quid for them as he had just returned from oil rigs and wanted to take his girlfriend to see them for a treat. So, I met him and he handed me the money for tickets. So, I was well pleased laugh

Eos11: I'm not keen on the evenings drawing in .. doesn't seem long since it was still light at 10pm ... now I'm having to close my curtains about 9.
I don't have that problem as I never open my curtains anyway laugh

However, I've had to put my bike lamps on in the mornings now 'cos it's darkish when I'm riding to work at 5.15am uh oh

How it came about was I'd been to see lightning seeds with someone earlier that year and they must have thought I'd like lightning seeds so gave me tickets as a gift. How they thought lightning seeds and lighthouse family music were similar I've still not managed to work out dunno or maybe it was because both bands begin with "Light" idea laugh

You could be right about the names similarity ... especially as some time had passed .. still the gift did you a good turn and you was lucky in finding someone who wanted to pay so much grin I like it!

Good that it's better. We don't expect to get colds in the summer do we? Perhaps it is because the weather is so changeable lately.

I worked so late last night to make up for the work I would have done today as I wanted Saturday off for a change, but because I was so shattered after I fed the cats at 6 I went back to sleep and didn't wake till 2.30 and I feel groggy, so early night tonight and out tomorrow. I have some vouchers burning a hole in my handbag!
