The other year I had totally no wastage AT ALL as I then went on to feed the damson stones to the Kune Kune pigs who slept very well after their alcoholic little snack.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-11007165416429961842014-07-21T12:54:20.318+01:002014-07-21T12:54:20.318+01:00Sorry I wasn't there or I would have waved ;-)...Sorry I wasn't there or I would have waved ;-)<br /><br />We've been away all weekend.

I have been past there so many times, its such a nice place so I'm even more envious now lol. We had a good day yesterday in Llandudno with great weather but today, as you know , it was quite drizzly and cloudy over the mountains. We still had a great time and look forward to our week there very soon. We had a walk in BYC on the way back and spotted our holiday cottage. Its just down from pont-y-pair on the back road to Llanwrst so we were pleased with that.

I just had to replace my pop-up toaster yesterday and would have loved a similar devise to yours for gas cooker usage. Having said that, we are quite happy with the replacement toaster we bought from Tesco as it has a one year guarantee on it. If it fails within this time we just take it back and get a new one free of charge. I`ve only spent £10.50 on this new toaster, so it`s not too much expense for us. Any idea if there would be a similar devise as yours that could be used on a gas hob?
