Lesley Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 They're BIG!!!!!!! We still have some space left......... We now have .... a small freezer in the kitchen for normal everyday things, ice-cream, frozen peas, frozen fruit etc. A tall freezer which was in the kitchen but will be moving from the spare bedroom to the freezer room Two massive freezers which I hope will soon be moving from the lounge to the freezer room A small chest freezer back at the other house which will be moving to the ...... A tall fridge which was in the kitchen but will be moving to the Brewery/Sausage room A small fridge back at the other house, also to move to the Brewery. Ummmmmmmm - no wonder my Dad was a bit worried about whether the electricity supply to the house will be big enough to cope I couldn't call the electricity board out to check until all the work had been done - in its original state, it would have been condemned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 I hope not! We've just bought a generator just in case! All those freezers are not very environmentally friendly are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 - oops! I didn't know that was what he did I hope it is - I need to get hold of someone, preferably around the throat, and I know where you live! It was delivered on its side and leaking oil everywhere We haven't started it up yet - waiting for the oil to er .......do something before we try. I have phoned the company - Omega Wolf - as the packaging did not say that it should be kept upright and it was delivered by TNT - in the guise of 'white van man' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) I've just sliced one quarter of one side of the bacon. It was 5lbs of bacon, 4 small pieces of pancetta and a small bag of bacon bits. I sliced a small amount by hand this morning for Martin and Clare to test for me, the rest I've just done with the slicing machine - I might get the hang of it one day Carl likes thick bacon anyway We're just about to try it with eggs and fresh bread - Yum!
