Had Hilarious Event Yesterday.lol.l

[Smowball]

Put my breadmaker on. Thought yes let’s have some tasty bread. Walked into lounge.heard huge bang! Ran into kitchen - breadmaker was actually on kitchen floor!! Socket on wall was split in two! god knows what happened but wall socket was ripped in half and bread maker was 10 feet away, on the floor! Had an electrician out within hours and even he said he’d not seen anything like it loo

[waterboatman]

How odd!

[Smowball]

Very odd!!

[derek-33]

hard to believe when a bread maker is so heavy. But there ya go.

[Zacs-Master]

Hilarious?

[barry1010]

You were lucky! I have never known anyone have as many unfortunate incidents as you

[TonyV]

Something untoward must have happened, surprised electrician could find no fault.

[elliemay1]

I wouldn't call that hilarious!

[Patsy33]

Oh how we laughed!...
Glad no one was hurt, Smow..

[TonyV]

^^^ ditto ellie

[aelmpvw]

hope you've got the dough to buy a new one

[naomi24]

I wouldn't laugh at that.

Be grateful it was in the lighter stage of the events cycle otherwise the machine might have launched itself through the ceiling to the room above setting fire to whatever was there and eventually consumed the whole house.

lol

By the law of averages (or law of something) we all will have the odd incident happen to
us once in a while .

But boy , you do have more than the average amount .

Are you making up these stories ?

Just asking

[emmie]

hardly hilarious smow.....

[elliemay1]

Was there no fuse in the wall socket?

[elliemay1]

^ or a fuse in the plug?

[TonyV]

"Normally" if an appliance has a fault an rcd will go in the consumer unit, mine normally goes if a light bulb blows. A tad annoying but better safe than sorry.

[AuntPollyGrey]

Fused items don't blow up - that's what the fuses are for! You must have a large kitchen for something to be blown 10 feet from the work surface. Hilarious?

[elliemay1]

I know that fused items don't blow up, I was surprised that there was no fuse in the plug

[TonyV]

Depends if it had the correct fuse in and not overrated fuse wire or a cut down nail?
