Men in the kitchen

[Skweeky]

My darling husband made me some fresh roasties . They were absolutely delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed the meal.

However, at this present moment my sink is overflowing because Mr Skweeky forgot how bad an idea it is to pour liquid lard down the sink..

Anyone have any ideas how to get rid of this, short of pouring sulphuric acid down the drain?

[Squeamous]

Plunger and elbow grease?

Then after you've finished hitting him around the head, try using it on the sink :happy:.

No, and if you find a good one, do tell.

I, much like mister skweeky, is something of an innovateur when it comes to pouring new and exciting liquids, or approximations thereof, down the sink ( :pinch: )

[Mr. Mulder]

the kitchen is where food comes from :yup:

[Barbarossa]

Mr Muscle sink & plughole unblocker. :01:

Or boiling water might work, if it's just lard :unsure:

[Biggles]

Boiling water and some washing up liquid to degrease it a bit. Don't leave it to set hard.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Remove the U-bend and de-lard it.

Do that prior to any of the madness these other non-builders are saying. Otherwise you are merely moving the problem someplace where you can't really deal with it properly.

[IdolEyes787]

If you don't want to use a commercial product,boiling water to start.
Plunging isn't that effective on grease but it doesn't hurt.
Baking soda and vinegar can work wonders.
If all else fails a drain snake(auger).
Taking off the u-bend is fine if you know what your doing and can reseal it properly ,otherwise you'll be calling in a professional.
I've done plumbing work at times so I'm not just spouting off.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Taking off the U-bend is a piece of piss as is putting it back on.

Perhaps not in Canadia, but she's not in Canadia she's in Cumbernauld. I've done shitloads of building work in Cumbernauld.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Oh and her Hunsband is/was a highly trained professional with Her Majesty's Forces so he can probably pull it off if she decides not to do it.

[IdolEyes787]

I wasn't trying to say that your suggestion wasn't the most effective,but not everyone is mechanically inclined and old pipes can present problems.
I was simply trying to help no need to attack me for that.

[CrabGirl]

Oh god. I had the exact problem a while back and couldn't get the pipes out to clear them so had to use industrial strength sink unblocker which worked brilliantly.

Slap him silly mate.

Who was attacking you.

[IdolEyes787]

Been in enough fights to know when to raise my fists.

[Mr JP Fugley]

FFS it's the most basic of DIY

[CrabGirl]

Yes I know that. However it depends on your sink being fitted with the right pipes and the threads on the joints not being fucked.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Been in enough fights to know went to raise my fists.

One generally finds that people who have been in a lot of fights have caused most of them. In my adult life I've been in two, neither of which lasted very long.

Oh and did you and Les swap a "when" for a "went".

Cross thread reference above.

Sorry, I didn't read the bit where Skweeky said the threads on the joints were fucked.

Just keep paying attention to her, she likes that.

Much like any other near terminally boring person I've run into, all she wants is attention :dabs:

I'll just bypass it all and keep her on ignore from now on, TYVM.

=-=-

I assumed skweeky's not an idiot and have tried boiling water and all of that, btw, you condescending cawks :dry:

There prolly isn't a u-bend to detach, like wot there isn't in my apartment, either :dry:

Plumbing advice from Japon now, fucking genious.

Skweeky, do me a favour and don't listen to any of these people. They are all clearly foreign, mental or both.

[Snee]

Did you just misspell the word genius or something else? :unsure:

[Mr JP Fugley]

Let's put it this way, arsewipes.

Hands up if you have done any of the following in Cumbernauld or it's environs:

1. Cleared the U-bend in a sink, to cure a blockage.

Read the file name Billy :naughty:

[Snee]

racialist :dry:

[Mr JP Fugley]

plumbist

[Something Else]

I make a mean halloumi kebab. :smilie4:

[CrabGirl]

:drool:

[Mr JP Fugley]

How the fuck do you make a cheese kebab.

[Snee]

Sounds like you've caught muesli :ghey:

[Something Else]

Hoi, it's vegetarianism actually. :snooty:

Which i'm sure bo is about to take the pish out of me for. :(

[CrabGirl]

Halloumi is god's gift to vegetarians. Soooo good.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Halloumi is god's gift to vegetarians. Soooo good.

Death is God's gift to vegetarians.

[Something Else]

:lol: bastard. :dry:

[kaffeine]

vegetarianism :ghey:

[Mr JP Fugley]

:lol: bastard. :dry:

Hoi, it's even described as "Meat your maker"

Let the blasphemy commence.

[Proper Bo]

Hoi, it's vegetarianism actually. :snooty:

Which i'm sure bo is about to take the pish out of me for. :(

I don't need to, poove.

[Mr JP Fugley]

I don't need to poove.

So why do you, is it a lifestyle choice.

Who the fuck still uses lard in this day and age anyway? :blink:

[Mr JP Fugley]

Who the fuck still uses lard in this day and age anyway? :blink:

Mr Skweeky :blink:

[Biggles]

Who the fuck still uses lard in this day and age anyway? :blink:



Oi! It is the West of Scotland we use it to coat fruit. Nu-labour cousins or something like that.

[Skweeky]

Taking out the U-bend sounds like the most plausible solution. I don't like pouring dangerous chemicals down the drain unless I really have to. Unfortunately Mr Skweeky is not blessed with any plumbing skills. Her Majesty's Forces tought him how to fix helicopters and shoot people and that's it.

I shall have to call in Mr Skweeky's best friend. An IT consultant with a knowledge of plumbing :yes:
