At my old gaff in the fine city

I bought a second hand cooker off of some bloke in Why Mond Hum.

Had a wire out the back and there was a similar one hanging out of the wall, so I snipped a bit and plugged her in.

Heard a sort of crack noise in the night. Thought it was the usual lunacy coming from the Polish next door.

Took the opportunity to go for my nocturnal defecation. As I went past the cooker I saw a brown scorch mark up the wall, then a blue flash which quickly caused a similar marking in my best pyjamas.

Was to embarrassed to get a sparky in so I moved out pronto.
