Why o why does the gas always run out at fecking 5am, the clicking from the fridge woke up the Dragon,
Who in turn wakes me to let me know,
Get up and change over the reg to fresh cylinder and back to bed..........but cant get back to sleep 😡😡

As always it was a lovely comfy sleep whilst it lasted 😂😂

Sounds like frustration.
Which were you most cross with, herself for awakening you, or the gas cylinder running out?
Maybe best not to answer that one.

Not the first time that has happened to me,my answer is get up and turn the fridge off and go back to bed.
Change cylinder in morning.

Worse, go to bed slightly tipsy 😇 get up at 3am for a pee and the red light comes on!

If you were slightly tipsy, you would see 2 red lights.
Total tipsy = no red lights or hearing the other half

I think the next time that the fridge runs out of gas in the middle of the night the Dragon might let me sleep😁😁

Well I was at the Ulster Military Vehicle show at Portstewart today and had the tannoy announce that we were going to fire a dummy 50 cal machine gun off the top of a US WW2 half track (it runs on a mix of oxygen and propane from separate tanks along with a spark. Leo and behold despite working earlier the propane gas ran out as the crowd had gathered. Not 3am but that would have been a better time for me to find out 🙄. So it happens to halftracks and not just motorhomes.. why oh why indeed.

Liam can I ask you what drives you to turn the fridge off every night before going to bed? Is it the fear of gas or something else?
Our fridge is never off except on that occasion where the gas runs out in the middle of the night.

They all do.
I was applying for the Brussels LEZ tonight on a free application. Between pulling data from the log book, remembering the eircode and other bs, the bank manager is looking at the current account, or lack of.
Luckily no one got a belt of a shovel.
