# New Misery Animation!
Just finished the 2nd episode of Misery, my depressing character. This time it's a parody of REM's Everybody Hurts video.

the end is nigh

# eeep...Thread Jack.
Anyone know much about Carbon Monoxide?

We've got this alarm thing and in the year or so we've had it I've never heard it beep once...now it's beeping every 2 or three minutes. On the back it says "The Siren Will Sound" which I'm ashuming is more than the pathetic beep it's giving off now...more like the one it gives during testing.

I've opened the windows and doors, turned the fire and heating off and sat here freezing for about half an hour and the fucking thing's still doing it so I've threw it outside in the nice clean air...maybe it just needs batteries. I dunno, I'm not a "Carbon Monoxide Alarm Testing Guy" It's a sealed unit, I can't take these batteries out to put new ones in to make sure it's not playing tricks on me. What else can I do to make sure I'm not going to die?...any one know?

# Change the batteries.
if it beeps onve in a while it's batteries
if it beeps costantly, leave.

# beep every so often usually means change batteries
- but the windows thing is a good idea, check out for feeling sleepy and lips going blueish - nip out grab batteries pop them in, should be fine. Don't use any gas equipt. before you do this

# give transco a call.
they'll tell you.

# transco's phone number is
0800 111999
but they don'tdeal with faulty appliances, only what happens on the mains - they will deal with a gas leak on your property by turning up, turning the gas off and buggering off.

# hello transco?

# New Batteries
But don't trust me.

# I'd imagine its low batteries
smoke alarms do that too. Try sticking it somewhere with lots of CO gas (an oven? I dont know) and see if it goes off, if it does, you're probably going to be fine

# if you're gas oven is making lots of CO the alarm
should be shreaking like a goodun, I'd imagine

Or go round the missus' and make excuses to stay there till it all goes away/ someone else sorts it out.

# B&Q
sell little stickers which turn black in the presence of CO2... no batteries required :)

# it's CO not CO2 /pedant
but they are good, only last a few months and you have to look at them to check.
Some student unions (well mine, dunno about anywhere else) sell them cheap, 1.95 for two IIRC

It's the batteries. Call the gas emergency line, they will come round and tell you its the batteries. The end.
