desperanceDon't nobody go bothering Karen for updates, I'm okay.
Was just talking to her on the phone, went downstairs for a glass of wine - and found the whole house smelly of gas, because the oven had gone out and was oozing noxious ethers.
That's the second or third time recently I've put it on dead low and it's gone out altogether. Tut. Now I think I have a headache, which is the best excuse ever, not to do anything useful. And I have to keep going through to the kitchen, neurotically to check that the oven's still alight.
But I have to go to the kitchen now anyway, because it's the boys' teatime. And they're fine too, since you ask. Apparently ungassed. I don't know if they have headaches, but I don't think they're neurotic and there is apparently nothing wrong with their appetites.
