luthaiseakitSo... Tonight was supposed to be a wonderfully romantic evening for me and Colin. Due to littley and various other things we have a busy weekend ahead so I thought I'd cook a lovely meal, dress up all pretty and set the table nicely so we could enjoy a little Valentines magic this evening.
This failed on two counts...
One, Colin arrived home earlier than planned, meaning I was still cooking and still in my jeans and t-shirt so fail on the dishing up as he walks in and on the actually looking presentable for a change...
Two, a plug socket melted...
Oopsie? :(
Colin gave me a lovely bouquet of roses and I wandered out of the kitchen where I had been for the past hour or so to look for a vase. I thought the room smelt funny and I could hear something buzzing... And I looked behind the telly and saw smoke curling out of the plug socket. Never a good sign really! Colin came and turned it off and has cleaned up the mess but the stink is dreadful and it kind of finished any plans for a romantic evening in the lounge as we can't plug the tv or stereo in and it smells so bad :(
At least the roast lamb was nice and the rhubarb crumble worked well...
Argh! Just as I was about to post this the internet disappeared. The reason why? Another plug socket burnt... We think the phone plug is what has caused the issues. Fingers crossed!
