The worst I have had is when they just stop working.No dramas,no fires, nothing. Shows how safe they are.And thats in the last 20 odd years.Before that we had to rub two snakes together to keep them warm.Posh folks used lightbulbs.You young un's have never had it so good.We never even had livefood unless you count maggots from the fishing tackle shop.I'm going now before I turn into my dad.Harry
