Mum and Dad worked so it was up to me to see to my little sister, do my chores, and make the dinner...... Dad had been busy decorating the kitchen, and had put up the latest fashion on the ceiling - polystyrene tiles, in a diamond pattern.......the last thing to be fitted was the new cooker...... Came home from school, peeled potatoes, made chips, put chip pan on and forgot about it......put chips in pan and pan overflows onto new cooker........I soaked a tea towel, didn't work, so I lifted the pan and took it outside, just as Dad was coming in..... Upshot was, the kitchen was black, the tiles were floating down one by one from the ceiling, and the boiling fat fire had melted the triangular knobs on the cooker...........Dad had left a message on the table........please leave dinner until I come in.......got a hiding for that one.......

Ok One last one before I go to bed...... I was waiting in for a man to come and repair my cooker, but had to go to work,I decided that being that my hubby would be home in 20 mins I would take a chance and leave for work, as I ran down my drive I saw a small white van parked about 20 yards away from my drive, as I got nearer I could see the bloke in the van looking at some kind of paperwork.....He must be looking for me I thought as my place is a little off road and easy to miss... I ran up to the van and shouted at him 'cooker'? He wound down the window and I stuck my head through the open window 'are you looking for a cooker' F*** OFF he told me and spead away??? It was only later that I realised that he must have thought I said HOOKER!! Rosi

It looks and sounds familiar Lynn, but I don't remember my Dad having any at home. Would it have been used in a Barber shop as well, I used to go with my Dad when he had his hair cut sometimes? Maybe that's where I remember it from? ooops quick update! Rosi-I think you should 'Rosi Glows Book of Shame and Other Mis-haps!' lol Nanna-M ;))

This happened 2 years ago.......Daughters 21st Birthday

I fell asleep on the toilet in a pub, my family and friends thought I had left slightly earlier than closing time, I was woken up at 1.30 by the landlord and his Alsation dog!!!! THE SHAME.....

roflmao!!!!! That reminds me of my dad. He had read a tip in the paper about soaking a brick in paraffin and using it in the fireplace, to save money! So he soaked the brick, put in in the fireplace in their bedroom and lit it.There was only one drawback, the paraffin started to seep onto the hearth, and onto the floor and within minutes the fire had spread to the floor. He panicks, shouts at me (I'm about 7/8!) go and get some water quick, I'm in a panick 'cos Ive left me Dad with a fire raging, he's panicking 'cos Mum's gonna kill him when she gets home, it was like a scene from a 'Carry On' film!! Well we got the fire out and Dad removed the offending bits of burnt linoleum and says 'Well, I won't be doing that again. Stupid idea!' What mother said when she got home I cannot repeat here! I believe he was all kinds of silly s**s and b****s ! Nanna-M :)))
