Crikey.  Send her my best.  I assume an operation is likely?

Give her some flowers from me please.

Could have been a blip I guess.


I already looked in the handbook at the start, Dex, I've always kept it.
It said it can be several things:

F28 -  No gas - insufficient gas. 
         Incorrect valve adjustment.
         Electrode defective.
         Ignition lead defect.
         Electronic igniter defective.
         Check air inlet duct.

Thanks though, Dex.

Yes,  I think at this stage that is all I can do.
Thanks Klondie.

Quote from: Dextrous63 on October 09, 2026, 08:03:45 PMJB, I assume that I've missed previous posts (due to my 6 or so months sabbatical) about Marge's wrist damage.  Can you give me a clue as to where about on here they might be so I can get myself up to speed?
She was going to the GP a couple of weeks ago on another routine matter and, having arrived at the road crossing, she decided to trip and fall, landing on her left wrist.  I lifted her up (under her shoulders) and we could see that her wrist was completely displaced.
We tried to call an ambulance, but were told it would be a few hours!  Consequently, we called for a taxi (Uber, as usual) and went directly to Wythenshawe hospital.
She had an X-ray which showed (we were both radiographers) quite a mess at the wrist, the ulna was displaced and the radius broken with pieces of shattered bone.  It appears that Marge has weak bones, which is why they shattered rather than just being displaced.
I thought I had mentioned this earlier on here, but I can't find it now.
