Wasn't really sure where to post this but does anyone have an old camping stove they might have used for a kitchen cooker whilst having work done to their house?


We are going to be kitchenless for a month or so and don't really want to live on take away or cold food!


Any old stoves or better ideas greatly appreciated!


Thank you

Hello, if your intending to use a camping stove in your house you will have to get hold of a small electric one. Never ever use a camping gas stove in your house or an enclosed area! The fumes it will release are highly dangerous and in a small space could cause you to fall unconscious even kill you if your exposed to it for long enough!

We had the fridge and the washing machine in the sitting room and washed up in the bath for 4 months - that was grim!


The cooking was done in a microwave or on an induction hob that sat on top of the washing machine as I didn't want to risk a naked flame or a hot electric element in our very tight living space.

You can pay quite a bit for one but we went for this cheap-ish hob http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004BM749S/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1/278-4129225-4678057?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe&pf_rd_r=0VY4SNZQJ6CTBWCRV6VA&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_p=103612307&pf_rd_i=B001TIPRN2 after reading the on-line reviews and were quite pleased with it

    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
