What don't you own ?

[RuthTopp]

So what don't you have at home that others would find essential ?
I don't have a dishwasher or a tumble dryer. We also only have 1 tv in the family room.

How do people without microwaves warm their plates?

Do people do this? Why are you warming your plates?

Dishwasher
Tumble dryer
Games console
Only got a microwave very recently
Car
Property
Hair dryer
Horse (the worst one...)

A corn maternity dress apparently

A music library. Way too many objects related to my instrument - they take up a whole room.

I always have a big, empty Ikea carrier bag in one corner of my room. That's where random things go when I don't immediately have time to clear them away, or simply when I need to get something out of my view and it doesn't have a set place. I go through it every evening though - it never gets full. I need a big Ikea bag so big items can also fit in there!

A Lakeland heated airer, which somebody keeps trying to persuade me to buy. Radiators do the job just fine.

How do those of you without kettles manage?

No TV here. I’m surprised at how many are the same and we’re not as weird as some think we are in RL!

Microwave.

Flat screen tv.

Consoles/dots/tablets.

Clearly anything very desirable - we were burgled a few years ago and the burglar didn’t seem to find much to take: a disappointing house for them

Wrong order!

My mum didn't have a kettle until she was 48. I didn't know what kettles were until I moved to the UK, in fact.

Water is boiled on the hob, in a big pot. Tea is only consumed 3-4 times each winter, when it's cold. Veg is almost never boiled. It is not the norm in some countries to have a kettle because you don't use it that often.

I actually got my sister to buy my mum said kettle before going back home for a holiday, because I couldn't contemplate two weeks without readily available boiled water. She still doesn't use it much, it sits there for when I visit

A dishwasher
A house
An upstairs toilet(!)

Make up

An 'eat in' kitchen.

I have plans. We have funds. Just need DH to visualise...

A big sign saying ' love' or something similar!
Lots of cushions on the bed.
A tattoo.

En Suite - We have a family bathroom and a downstairs loo. Don't want to clean another bathroom.

A dog - much to DD'S disgust.

TV - just the one downstairs, I don't see the point of them in bedrooms. We rarely watch stuff "live" so it's not like we ever have clashing TV priorities.

We have a lot of the other stuff mentioned though, makes me wonder why to be honest.

Dishwasher
Tumble Drier
Television
Mircowave
Electric kettle
Freezer
Central heating
Alexa
Spare bedroom

Generally do my best to avoid most modern gadgets but do have laptop and phone (needed for work) and as somebody else mentioned they didn't have one, I do have a horse that probably explains why I go without all the other stuff.

I don't have any makeup (I'm f) nor do I buy any alcohol. I also don't own a hairdryer nor any straighteners (I just towel dry my hair and comb through it).

A DH or a wedding ring....

Netflix
Sky
Alexa or similar

My niece did ask me once if we were poor 😂 we just do you t watch a lot of tv!
