@cranky_granny - We couldn't afford crackers, so lit a fire & threw bits of fibro (I think it was - OMG - did that have asbestos in it??) on the fire & it would explode, sounding just like fire crackers!! ;)
I can relate to BOTH of those, @Blossom1961. ;) Specially the bladder one - when I get back from kayaking!!! And there is NEVER a loo nearby til I get home & I am positively ACHING!!
And I am still making plenty of mistakes too!! I blew up a small 'cooler' the other day by plugging in the wrong 12v cord .... :( Luckily it only cost $25 ...
