Doing a bit of amateur archaeology @Mrs_Maureen_OPinion? That is positively ancient Paul.
And fairly sure I’ve posted it before, but it cracks me up every time…
I phoned our local DIY store last week to find out how big their queue was…

You are one member of a miniscule outgroup which:
a) I’d trust with one
b) has legitimate cause to own one
Also, please don’t be Relentlessly Literal in the Fatberg of Fun thread - it gets The Stupids overexcited and they’ll drop their icecreams.
I’m in two minds about whether to respond. I wasn’t being that literal (they are quite dangerous things and I’ve only ever had to use each one just once, in each case in what you might call an emergency). But explaining that would be, er, being a bit too literal for the FoF thread. So here’s an electrical goods joke

Reminds me of the story* of the junior doctor working alongside his senior colleague who’s trying to stop a patient taking herbal remedies. “Just because it’s natural that doesn’t mean it’s safe” he says “there’s a plant in my garden which will kill you in 10 minutes if all you do is sit underneath it”. The patient leaves, suitably terrified. “What plant is that then ?” asks the junior. “Water lily.”
