All I wanted was a toaster

I've been on leave for last few days , and haven't seen much of my partner ( she's busy studying)
But today we decided to go into town and buy a new toaster...very romantic I know.
The original destination was the Warehouse, but due a navigation problem we ended up at Noel Lemming...I'm thinking WTH
So there we were...surrounded by glowing high tech. As we made our way to the small appliance section...which is small, we were intercepted by a sales person....and he was good.
Anyway...we left there with a new 65" tv and a microwave...as you do.

To be honest, we have been looking at upgrading the old tv for a while, but after finding out that my 90 year old Mums tv is on the way out (yesterday) , my partner decided to upgrade ours and give our one( much younger) to Mum .
So the Nav problem was planned...I let her do the nav when we go out....but what a gesture :)
I think Ill keep her, and Ill go to the Warehouse tomorrow for the toaster :)

At least with a microwave, you've always got something to watch if there's nothing on the tumble drier or the TV :D

Watching stuff...
I always find it very relaxing to watch the water boiling in my new 2 kw Electric Kettle!
Much faster than the water in the saucepan for my Potatoes!

...and as for Paint Drying... :o ... :unsure: ...!

I've never got around to buying the new-fangled, snazzy "Air Fryer"...
..I'm still a happy bunny with my trusty Gas Stove (4 Gas Burners + Gas Grill), and Gas Oven for all my daily Cooking needs!

It's amazing how many choices there are on Amazon nowadays.
All the stuff I need, and next-day delivery (Prime).
No need to wander around the shops in town....getting too old and infirm!!.... :( ...!
