i quite like making jam and marmalade not suffered any disaster yet. at least nothing to compare wiht the Great Hob Disaster of '98. We had a brand new ceramic hob and I was preparing dinner pending the arrival of my wife home from work.

We had an electric deep fat fryer at the time which being a little short or of work surface had been parked, full of oil, on the hob. The frier had a plastic base and outer shell. I had put on a pan of water for the vegetables and was watching the football results pending it coming to the boil.

Unfortunatley I had put on the wrong heating ring, the one under the fryer

Being engrossed in the TV I didn't notice until I smelt the acrid fumes and discover the hob was now coveed r in brown molten plastic which was dripping onto the newly laid kitchen floor. The fryer was now at a crazy angle and decanting cooking olil into the mix.

A that moment the doorbell rang. My wife was back after a stressful day at work...
