I hope you've taken account of expansion...  rubschin:

I left a bottle of white wine in the freezer, as you do, and came back to find an inch shaft of frozen wine extending from the neck with a cork on the top  redface:

If his freezer will solidify Absolut Wodka then he could do a good job on that peach wine as well.  eyes:

So, good for the car radiator then...

If you were in a cold climate...

But you're not...    redface:

Look, I've not had a very good day, what with the confusing mathematics from the Building Society  ::)

Having secured an agreement about a payment "holiday" (haha!) with them I asked what impact this would have on future payments. Reasonable enough I thought.

"Your existing payments are (let's say) £1.00 per month; so let's see, the computer tells me that the increase would result in a future monthly payment of.... yes, it's coming through... £0.98...."

So, that would be an increase of minus 2p?   "Err, yes Sir"      cussing: cussing: cussing:

We used to drive an old one of those in a friend's field. They named their property Théoly because they knew we English liked word games.

Théoly - Thé au lit - Tea in Bed, or Breakfast in bed as we preferred  ;)

How many knew the subsequent evolution of the model became a Godess?
