Well, it's like this, yesterday I was doing some housework as I am a new-age man ;) and I was hoovering with the wifes new dyson and having a fly smoke as:
1: I am supposed to have given it up and:
2: I have a bet on with the wife that I can stop for a month and see how it goes.
Well, anyways, I was hoovering away and suddenly I heard the front door open, cig stuck in mouth, panic set in, so I dropped the cig on the floor, 'laminate' and hoovered it up thinking hey, problem solved.......Wrong.
She comes through the sitting room door and I was cool as a cucumber, how was your day, blah, blah, blah when suddenly she noticed a strange red glow then eventually flames inside the dust chamber.
She was furious, not at me but at the manufacturer because I said it must be an electrical fault, (and she believed me).
Well naturally I had to come clean as to what had happend as there was no-way the company wouldn't have figured out what happened and refused to refund our money.
Now I am in the doghouse untill further notice. [smirk]
