Are you sure you're not Frank Spencer?DaveMehmet said:Cats. Managed to get talked into getting 2 of the feckers. Working from home today and was planning to cook a nice roast dinner for the family. They brought a mouse in and I spent all afternoon trying to catch it. All the appliances had to come out along with the plinths. Managed to get it after 3 hours of trying. I didn't have the heart to kill it, stunned it and put it done the garden, where I'm sure the cats caught it anyway. Went to put everything back and the dishwasher inlet hose split and I managed to shatter the glass front door to the oven.
Upside is we got a takeaway Indian on the way back from B&Q for a new hose, downside probably looking at £200 for a new door.
Oh, and my daughter managed to spill Ribena all over the popadums at the table.6 -

Animal, in my case Dog insurance.
Our dogs insurance is now a thousand pound a year dearer than my house and car combined and that's without their liability insurance for working with the Upbeats etc0 -

My fridge freezer. How we rejoiced when we moved into a house where the owner had left a top end range oven and side by side fridge freezer. The oven goes first... A grand to replace... Now the fridge freezer. Can't possibly go back to a normal one. It would be as if I'd failed.
Thats Christmas cancelled then. I shall go upstairs and inform the children.2 -

But more worryingly on the train home the other day someone's phone was making terrible bleeps and I thought to myself "what the f**k is that?" and strangely enough the bloke sat next to me answered my question.
I apologised for thinking out loud ...

Oven went a couple of months ago and had to replace. Fridge freezer went last week. Only had it less than two years as the previous went just before Xmas as well. Only had 1yr guarantee on as well

Had a similar situation to DaveMehmet with a cat and mouse. Locked the two in the kitchen Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome style and left them to sort it out2 - Sponsored links:

Not sure if I am 100% correct here AFKA but you should be protected under the consumer protection act under what is known as "Reasonable working life" and less than two years certainly isn't that. It may be worthwhile checking out with The Citizens Advice Bureau. I had a similar issue with a 14 month old dishwasher (also out of guarentee) and when I spoke with Zanussi and mentioned the working life thing they did relent and send an engineer round who fixed it FOC so may be worth a try.0 -

Apparently the Sale of Goods Act is better than that, but I can't find a link.0 -
This. A lot!ValleyGary said:Cats are poxy animals
Ridiculous animals, cats are owned by people who want a pet but dont really want to look after them.
Bin day is Wednesday for us, the black sacks go out at about 7pm, 7.15 there is some flea ridden moggie tearing them open, shit everywhere, if that was my dog, my neighbours would be knocking on my door to complain, but because its a cat....its accepted. Just waiting for the bugger to get in my garden, me and my .22 silenced hi powered rifle will be waiting.
Cats? Yep I love the furry bundles of fun.2 -
Lets face it, the only common domestic pet that takes more looking after than a cat is a dog.Greenie said:

Cats are really stupid animals, but when people anthropomorphise them their stupidity becomes "independence".0

I find it oddThe Organiser said:Everyone turning their Facebook into the French colour and assuming some kind of moral and sensitive superiority for doing so, when in reality, despite the good intentions of some, they are merely following the latest trend and most will go back to not giving a monkeys about what happened and the underlying causes going forward.
I'm probably alone with this one.
