Dan just saved my life!!!!
So for Christmas as part of the lovely gifts from SWMBO I got one of these:
Absolutely loved it (Notice the past tense! )
Yesterday at around 8:30 as SWMBO left for work, I knocked it to the floor and it smashed Luckily SWMBO had just closed the front door
I panicked, as I know SWMBO would be sooooooo upset, looked around on the internet, and could not find anything that could get it delivered by today (We're leaving for holiday tomorrow)
Then thought of 'Duckworth Parts'..... So sent Dan a "please save my life' PM, it's now just over 26 hours after that PM and the Mug has arrived, coincidentally while SWMBO is in work
a HUGE thanks to Dan for his phenomenal turn-around and cracking price also
Moral of the story.... "Don't break anything that SWMBO buys you, and if you do, get Dan on the phone" Iggy/Ieuan

To be honest, it fall from my "Standy up desk thing' on to a hard floor, so about 3+ feet, and it may have had a hairline crack from a previous incident (Again not noticed my SWMBO )
And if SWMBO does read this, then I may not be returning from our holiday tomorrow, you may find me in a few years buried under a Scottish beach! Iggy/Ieuan

Iggy, do you seriously think Mrs Iggy isn't fully up to date with your wheeling and dealings? Always assume SWMBO's know everything, if they don't that's a bonus.

I was just thinking of additional uses.
Lot of talk of rubber here. Careful, don't want to get DG too interested.
