Defrost

We went to my wife's Uncle Reggie and Aunty Shelly's 25th wedding anniversary bash last night. It was in the 'Plough and Horses' pub in Crowborough and was a really good night.

The buffet was excellent and my kids had a great time dancing in their party frocks. The youngest daughter (2 and-a-half) was very pleased to be wearing a matching dress to her big sister, "Look, F, look. We're the same."

We left around 10ish and the kids soon dropped off in the car. After I'd put them to bed I went to the garage to get a chicken out of the freezer for lunch today. I saw a little pool of water on the floor and when I opened the freezer I realised the whole lot had defrosted. Someone had accidentally switched the freezer off. We only just stocked up about five days ago so we lost around £200 worth.

Gutted, I'm absolutely gutted. We can't afford it so it'll have to go on the credit card. Nuts.
