Smoke alarms are literally the bane of my fücking life. The slightest sear on a steak and the fücking thing goes off. Yesterday we had a plumber in and he had to weld a pipe. You'd have thought the Luftwaffe were overhead from the noise the fücker made. My wife won't let me put clingfilm over them - some shïte about one saving her life once or something. :rolleyes:Quote:

Mind you, I did a remarkably stupid thing the other day. I was heating the oil in a bun tin for Yorkshire puddings in one of my ovens. Only, rather than switch the oven on, I switched the grill on and shut the door. When I opened the oven door, of course, they all caught fire. I got them to the sink and just remembered in time not to run the tap onto them, instead doing the wet tea towel thing.Quote:
