There's safety in sandwiches Dazers


Though ASDA own brand ?34 is made by Sanyo


Though don't buy a Toyota


Oh yes ,they are made for going from A-B however, they are having trouble at B and ending up in Z


But then that's a car , not a microwave isn't it



Yes ....indeede




W**F

When I was growing up and we couldn't afford a microwave I thought they were the coolest things


When I moved out and got a job and still couldn't afford one it was still high up on my list


When I got one?. I realised how grim they were - got rid and never bothered again


Sometimes, when I'm being dim and forget to defrost something I will momentarily wish I had one - until I remember how grim the result was


Good riddance I say - save your money and get the decent steak again

My Gran had hers for so long I thought she might want to be buried with it.


As it was, she opted for one of those wicker basket-style eco-coffins.


One of the staff at 'The Crem' told me (after the curtains had closed etc) that, ironically, it took more gas to burn the 'eco' ones because the hardwood timber used in standard coffins help the combustion process along.


How we laughed!

I can't understand why microwaves are being dissed. For sure, you probably wouldn't want to cook your entire dinner in it. but I find them mighty useful for:


1. Cooking potatoes quickly which I can then chuck into what I am cooking on the stove. (Saves about 15 mins cooking time).

2. Reheating cups of tea/coffee that have gone cold.

3. Drinking chocolate. (Saves washing up the saucepan).

4. Quickest/best way to melt choclate for cooking (According to Nigella).

5. Reheating leftover cooked rice.


Etc etc

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
