I was doing a re-grout and using the Fein and my henry hoover..

About half hr went by, solid grout raking and hoover sucking... i smelt a burning smell and thought hey up!.. and then all of a sudden my son jumps up as his bum was a bit warm.. Henry just about caught fire and was smoking more than Dan...:smilewinkgrin:

Bang!!!! he died..:yikes:

Still smoking my son grabbed poor henry and ran downstairs to give him the kiss of life.. Too late Henry has passed away as of 3:36 pm today..


RIP Henry my Friend.. you will be missed..

Lol..... Always a sad time when you loose a close friend. Our deepest sympathies are with you and your son at this time with the sad loss of Henry.

On the upside.... It's a chance to buy some new gear....!

When Terry my TV died, I was heartbroken, he was a great mate, who saw me through many tough times. It took me two weeks before I let anyone take him down the council dump.

I feel your loss Dave!

Don't bury him, cut his head open and turn him into a plant pot, you'll be together forever that way ..........erm ;)

Lost mine a few years back and I still think of him most days, he caught fire too.

Had a few days to gather my thoughts then went out and got Hetty who's now a working girl.

Gutted when I found out just a few days ago I could have bought a new heart for Henry at just £35

My Henry was an OLD man and really he was working to hard these days.. i think a youthful Henry would be the way to go.. Sort of a toyboy ..:lol:
