That is a quite a scary looking diagnosis Betty. She did well to come back from that. Hope she is up and about soon.

If you like peas so much, why don't you start a thread?

I have a lot of material to add.

I'm not accepting broad beans as peas

Did I mention I am not accepting fashion advice on jeans from a Norwich supporter.

If that's aimed at me, and I f'kinwell hope that it's not... then it's without doubt the most unpleasant words ever spoken to me!

I was returning a pair of winter slippers to change the size when I noticed somebody else returning a large trendy looking microwave/air fryer combo, complaining that the plastic was bubbling on the button panel

I immediately had a brain-bomb that I recognise those symptoms being described. I happen to know from experience that the bubbled panel is because they have not removed the protective peeling plastic from the button panel and there is probly nuffink wrong wiv it.

I lived with a similar bubbled and torn plastic panel for 20 years before recently realising that my own 20 year old microwave could be rendered 'as-new' by peeling the bubbled plastic off.

It was swiftly tagged as a 40% mark-down based on the complaint and just as swiftly snatched up by my my good self and whisked to the checkout.

I opened the box on the way and checked that the bubbling was there and then also confirmed with my finger nail that the bubbled plastic could be simply peeled off for a spanky new oven.

I actually have doubts about how effective these combo devices are in reality but I can't resist a mark-down bargain so it had to be mine.

I had this with a new motorbike around 15 years ago.

I got 2 extra decals from Honda and had them applied in house. New Honda bike, OEM Honda decals, applied by Honda staff in their Honda dealership.

A month or so later and they were discoloured and bubbling. I was a bit pissed as they looked terrible and it had all been done by Honda.

I went back there to complain and generally act like they're all a bunch of useless shitheads.

The manager came out and just said, you know you have to peel off the outer film, right? Then put his hand down and did it immediately, leaving behind a perfectly applied and radiant decal on the lovely fairings.

I think my face was redder than the R at the end of the decal.
