We have a new fridge. The old one was fine - had indeed recently been cleaned. I can only guess that as a fairly new EU member, Slovakia has got round to contributing to the union's fridge mountain. Moreover, the new fridge doesn't close as well as the old one, which will lead to electricity wastage when people don't shut it properly.
While I'm on the subject, several taps at the UN building get left running because they need a wrench to turn off (I have brought this to the attention of the homo sapiens in charge of such matters... "Taps are complicated and expensive").
When I was 35% younger I used to spend a lot of time on the www.fadetoblack.com message board, where fridgemagnet was one of my favourite posters.
Postscript: searching for 'black hole europe' led me to read of CERN being taken to court in Hawaii for possibly creating a black hole in the Large Hadron Collider, thereby eating the world. It sounds like an excellent solution to the problem of existence; I imagine that dying in a black hole would be very quick, and therefore acceptably painless. (And who knows if we would actually die? Maybe we would be spat out reformulated in another dimension new galaxy, intergalactic planetary...)

Solution: place pathetic maintenance person in fridge, shut door, place in 'black hole in the heart of Europe'.
(a.k.a. I read those links!)
pathetic maintenance person is ex-secret service, he could probably find his way out. funny guy.
good to know people have time enough on their hands for my link habit...
Anything is better than your old old fridge at the Abbey Street flat. and no, I'm not over that wreched test of my character.
love and mangos,
Laura
