[melv16]

Will I need counselling ?

[Cloverjo]

Oh dear. I feel your pain.

Have you got a person coming in to fix it or try to sell you a new one?

Don't worry, you'll get through this ;)

[anneasquith]

How long have you 2 been married ?

[Patsy33]

I hope you get all the help you need Melv. It won't be easy. x

[melv16]

Pain! I'm in agony, I'd better go and have a lie down :-)

[melv16]

It's terminal..sob, wail, floods of tears :-(

[Barmaid]

I feel your pain, Melv. When mine died on CHRISTMAS DAY it was the worst 48 hours of my life.

[Islay]

Lol Barmaid my Oven and cooker died on Christmas day 3 years ago - have you ever tried doing a Christmas dinner in a George Forman a steamer and a slow cooker!!

[Barmaid]

Oh my, that's awful. Could you not barbeque? lol. Although my bbq is a bit fancy and I've managed to cook a Roast in it and even a pizza in the middle of a field in the ****** rain.

[Islay]

Noooo my bbq at the times was an oil drum!
We managed even if it meant carving semi raw turkey breast and finishing on the GF!!
Plenty of champagne helped!

[melv16]

It's like losing a friend, will I ever get over it;-)

[Barmaid]

Melv. There is a grieving process. It will take time. There is much you can do to alleviate the pain. Firstly I would suggest you get a new one AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Secondly, make sure your stocks of alcohol are topped up.

[melv16]

I'm a Yorkshireman and buying a new one will mean parting with money...waaiiiiiilllll:-)

[zebo]

Send for the cavalry, ao.com are pretty quick! Look on the bright side, the Black Friday sales are starting, you might get a 'bargain'. My OH decided that 11am on Christmas Day was a good time to put the washing machine on and put the oven gloves in there.

[zebo]

A Yorkshireman? Turn the sofa upside down and shake it hard.

[Barmaid]

You're from Yorkshire? Just stick the plates out in the rain.....

[melv16]

LOL @ the replies.

[woofgang]

I love AO....they deliver so quickly and will disconnect the old one, connect the new on and take the old one away.

[melv16]

Girding my loins to wash up the Sunday dinner pots..... By hand..

[Jackdaw33]

It's a pity that Mrs O is no longer with us. I'm sure she would have been more than happy to lend you her Marigolds.

[Tilly2]

....and I'll send you some tea towels. I have a few to spare.
