fucking

toaster

yes our old one blew up...
but still

And not just any toaster

£95

He has flown back out now

I hope he stays there

What a cleverly lady she is

My DH has just returned from 10 days in USA/Canada, during which I survived sick DS, 5 power cuts (in freezing temperatures with sick freaking-out-in-the-dark-DS), a broken down car and a leaking radiator.

Nada, zippola not even a toaster.

(PS I too have a 10 yr old delongi toaster and kettle, fine design)
