Lesley Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 .......on this vile day....... We need a new 'emergency' telephone for when we have power cuts.........just found this review on one costing £3.99.......... Recommend to a friend? No"THIS PRODUCT IS JUST A BASIC TOASTER. IT DOES ITS JOB IF YOU USE MEDIUM SLICED BREAD, BUT DOES NOT ACCEPT THICK SLICES. FOR THE PRICE IT WAS I SUPPOSE YOU CANNOT EXPECT THE ROLLS POYCE OF TOASTERS." That cheered me up no end........now, whether to buy it or not? toast could be a bonus in a power cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Would you believe it?! Lesley, I have a spare 'basic phone' if you want to borrow it - it's one of those ones with large buttons though as it used to belong to my elderly neighbour. I am just hanging onto it in case something happened to my current 'emergency' phone, but was thinking of getting Phil to stick it on ebay.

majorbloodnock Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Sounds very unhygienic to me. Reckon I could end up with a problem with mixin' me toasties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlo Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Sounds very unhygienic to me. Reckon I could end up with a problem with mixin' me toasties. I am now trying to remember the joke where that was the punch line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
