I too had to leave early.
 
 It's still too cold.
I had to take a detour as the main road I normally use is closed, due to a broken water main.
Now to enjoy being B3

I put on the dishwasher.
I checked the cooker. There is one element not working in the oven, and a strong smell of gas mixed with Rape Seed Oil....
*Can't use it now!* :(
Looks like I have to get yet another cooker.
(I have had this one since January!)
*Second one hubby has broken*
I start to search for a reasonable priced cooker.
Now to burn off this foul mood at the last job of the week↓
 
 When I get back,
Hubby has found another cooker↓
 Hubby is fetching it tomorrow.
I will get the Plumber out who plumbed the last cooker in to do it.
Hopefully won't be having microwave meals for long ;P
