I was dragged to the depths of Currys the other day because i broke the foot on my 20 year old cylinder cleaner , now i was contented to wait till i found another foot . But himself insisted i should buy a new one . Well the first thing i found was that they had just one bagless cylinder cleaner on sale , so i ended up with that , i had to point out to my daughter that i cant use the huge stick hoovers because they pop my shoulder out of joint and hoovering this house where you never know whats going up the hoover be it a half chewed mouse or a few nuts and bolts isnt for something fragile . I cant even get the thing apart to empty it without assistance . Even better they didnt have any stock it has to be delivered . What is the point of this palace of a shop if you cant buy anything ?
Another strange question why do they sell nearly 50 different coffee machines all with different pods ? heres me with a cafeteria that ive had years that i can tip any pod into , just baffles me .
My daughter was trying to convince me how much i need an airfryer , i cant eat greasy food so why do i need an airfryer?
So thats me im unable to comply with all the modern needs and wants , ive even turned off my phone now mother has gone and i dont have to listen to her dramas , all thats on it is adverts so whats the point ?
PS... i caught the slimy buggers trying to chuck the old hoover in the bin ...no chance im sure i will find a spare foot somewhere
I don't have one myself (can't bear the thought of taking up space on the kitchen counter) but I believe air fryer is a misnomer as it doesn't actually fry. Think more like a mini oven. Useful and more economical if you're not going to need all of a normal oven. I'd rather not cook and stick to a saucepan of boiled veg and the occasional bit of baking. PS I love my Vax (the Henry Hoover sort). It has a simple construction and will suck up water or wash floors as well with a quick change of filter.

ReplyDeleteAir fryers are just a fancy oven type thing. I've got one in the form of an actual oven and it's like a fan oven on steroids. They run cheaper than a conventional oven, and if you get the right brand then they can be easier to clean. For me, with my joints, an air fryer on the counter is easier than an oven on the floor.
I hope that you find the foot, as an old, reliable appliance is worth a dozen of the new and unreliable sort.
I agree with both these comments - although i haven’t yet tried an air fryer, as no room or worktop for one! I agree with Kate too! I feel as if i’ve found myself on the planet of common sense!

ReplyDeleteMy Council are giving away air fryers, free to old folks like me. I was asked if I wanted one. I said no thanks. I can make meals on the gas hob, or the grill, or the microwave. Don't need another gadget to clutter up the worktops.
