You may have any number of virtual cakes. You can have a real one if you run around the block twice.

*they do look scrummy...*

Disconnect it and put it into the airing cupboard. :D After you've turned it on it's side to drain, of course. When it's dry, finish the job with CPC Air Duster. Good as new.

Airing cupboards are useful places, I once put a dead hamster in ours to double check it was indeed, dead, and not hibernating, we had sat crying over it a few days before, it's little lifeless body curled up in my hand, next thing, the warmth woke it up, scared the bejeebers out of us :shock:

One of the things I immediately loved when coming to England was the airing cupboards, but I must admit that is one use I have not put it to yet :-) (It has been used for drying gaskets, though...)

The main thing about an airing cupboard is the gentle background heat from the hot water cylinder means that towels and sheets don't get stale and damp (the Scots would say 'foosty' to describe that damp smell.) Excellent place for drying off keyboards, also, which have had a too close contact with a cup of tea... :shock:
