Electrical Appliances

The big fridge freezer had to go when I bought the second jukebox there wasn't room for it along the back wall with the two machines.
So I bought a small "Budweiser" fridge which sits on a table I made out of the stand for the "32 inch elephant in the corner TV" which turned up it's toes earlier in the year and had to be replaced. It's on lockable castors, so I can wheel it out onto the verandah. I made a shelf at the bottom to keep the rack for my spare records, about fifty of them. Do you know how hard it was to find one of those wire record racks those of us over forty had to store our 45s?
Millions of them must have been thrown away!

I managed to find a firm that actually still made them. It's a very "fifties" bit of black metalwork with yellow plastic ball feet.


There you go, that's the top of the fridge.

 

Doghouse...........I just love your garden!!!!:luv:

Does anyone use an electric toothbrush?

Val

 

Yes, I could just use a towel, but I don't live alone, and the hot air dryer gives bathing independence to another member of the household.

As to what I have on my feet - it's usually gardening boots.

 

Yes, we do! I forgot about that

 

Yeah, good call. Don't use it though :wink:

 

We have electric toothbrushes, but why are the replacement heads which are quite small, more expensive than an ordinary one?

 

T'other half does .. I can't stand them. Funnily, our dentist says I have the better teeth and gums ... and I am older ...:hehe:

Sorry, Alice, I still don't understand .. I don't live alone either and where does the independence come into it? We don't shut doors to the bathroom (certainly there is no lock on it) and wander in and out when the other is there doing whatever they may be doing .... maybe you'd prefer to PM me the answer ... :wink:

 

I mostly "drip dry" in a towelling bathrobe,

 

:hehe::hehe::hehe:

 

Call me old fashioned.... but...

I have a thing about shoes, I can't abide dirty shoes. I've a couple of pairs of Pavers slip on shoes and some pairs of Clarke's casual shoes. But if we're going out, I like a conventional all leather shoe with a "hard" heel. I've three pairs of golf shoes (all the same) for my three games each week. They all get cleaned and polished on Sundays and any other shoes that need attention.

I do not own a pair of trainers, never have, the closest I got to them were my squash shoes, but only on court, or when gardening when they were nearly worn out.
If I'm wearing casual shoes I've several dark colours of Chinos...err and 5 in Navy, but they double for golf. I stopped wearing jeans at 39.

But what I wear in the garden is my "scruff." I can wear two lots in the garden on the same day, as if I go out before lunch I'm ordered to change when I come in before going out again. My wife says that the scarecrow in the garden centre looks better dressed than me in my gardening clothes.

 

It is indeed a lovely garden. :yez:

 

Great garden Doghouse - I confess to being quite envious, where you get your time from to keep it looking so good is beyond me with all your other reported activities!

Agree about shoes but only use two pairs for my three games/week at the golf course. However I once went to the office having travelled on the commuter train/bus only to find I had one black and one brown shoe on - nobody said anything
(not sure if they were too polite or just never looked) - interesting?
