i'm in trouble

[shaggystu]

handy hint: when testing the burn times of wax coated pine cones (23minutes) in your hobo stove, in your fireplace, in your living room, always ensure adequate ventilation before start.

the smoke was horrendous, i'm in so much trouble when the boss gets home, pray for me.

Best of luck, fella.
Pull the puppy-dog eyes trick. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't - but you've nothing to lose.

Light the fire. Tell her "I've made the room all warm and comfy for you." Present her with a cuppa. When she asks what the smell is, blame it on a bit of dodgy wood.

Gotta be worth a try.

Is there any physical damage Stu?

Ooooh, good luck. I've been busted today too. Not fun.

that would be my current activity, wet coal, not my fault etc.

thankfully not, although the clothes airing on the rail may need a bit of a spray down with something sweet smelling

Ooooh, good luck. I've been busted today too. Not fun.

Emma had a half day today because of teacher training, or whatever excuse they use to do a half day. She turned up at the office (she never comes here) at the same time the posty arrived with some kit I bought. I did use the well used (I might be using it a little too much which is reducing its effectiveness) argument that £24 on two Swedish trangia stoves was nowhere near the amount of her daft costume. It worked to a point and I even got her dremelling the hook off them both. She did a good job were it not for the fact that she dropped the red hot ends on the carpet and burned a big C shape into it. Learning this mistake, she did the other over the sink and managed to drop the smaller cut off onto the lino floor, where it remains stuck. Not happy about that as they were all replaced in March. Gives me more ammunition though for when it's needed. Pity my kit delivery address has been discovered though.
