GordonG Apr 2024 4:50pm, 17 Apr 2024 10,318 posts	Quote Pin GordonG i've just spent the last minute watching a video, linked on the BBC news website, about the terrible flooding in Dublin today. Airport flooded, shopping malls washed out... I did think it odd that there seemed to be a lot of people of Asian appearance in the video. Then I realised it was Dubai, not Dublin.

Except today, when I did the first two steps then returned to the kettle and very nearly put more hot water in my mug.

This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
