And the ones with the mechanical timer. Made in the UK too. (they also do a cheaper Chinese made offering.....you can keep them.)
Dualit are what most cafe's and the like use.

Ironically it was supposed to be my appraisal today but my manager pushed it back. Annoyed that people went to her behind my back to raise the issues. She was good about it and completely saw my point of view. We have an action plan to rectify the situation and its probably a good learning curve for me. Just wish those that had the issues had let me try to deal with it first.

Can't imagine/justify spending that much on a toaster, though can certainly understand why cafs etc do. I've used the same toaster for about 8 years without a problem. That's around 6000 cycles (12000 slices) without a failure for about the equivalent of £20 to £25 (today's money). That probably means it'll fail next time I use it of course!And the ones with the mechanical timer. Made in the UK too. (they also do a cheaper Chinese made offering.....you can keep them.)

The lid on my lovely temperature controlled kettle has broken and there are no spares in stock. In fact they've sold out of the model completely and replacements are stuck somewhere in the future supply chain hell.
Customer Support say they'll keep checking the stock daily and will get back to me.
Nice try, but I predict I won't hear from them ever again, so it's Mr Araldite to the rescue.

I'll miss him. He certainly brought a smile to my face.

Morrisons online shopping substituting WD40 for a tube of KY jelly. When I asked the driver how I was supposed to loosen bolts with that the look on his face was priceless until we both burst out laughing ?
trying to log on to my company's benefits site to sell back some holiday and it's shut for maintenance on the very day it's supposed to open for us to make our choices for the year ahead.

Selling houses. We’re only 3 hours into the process and I’m already annoyed by it.

Fridge freezer in the garage keeps tripping out the RCD.
Time for a new one given that the stat on the fridge is knackered.
Luckily neighbour is having a new kitchen and has offered us his stand alone, a Haier, which I've never heard of.

Don't know if it works on bolts but I'm sure you could lube up your nuts with it. ?

Got a ticket off Hackney council for when I drove from home on Surrey/Hants borders right through the middle of London to Stoke Newington on the day of the storm. We were going to take the train but drove as all trains were cancelled - and we couldn't sort out which south London underground statins and lines were open. I just followed my sat nav as I hadn't a clue where I was going - but clearly it has taken me up a road from which cars and motorbikes were not permitted...and as it was dark and I was focussing on getting the turns etc right I didn't notice the vehicle restriction sign. Ah well. I enjoy chucking away £65 on top of the £32.50 congestion charge (as we stayed overnight in central London)

Power cut in the area earlier. Was showing on the tracker with a target resolution, so went to a relatively local pub for some wifi etc.
Tracker updates saying it is all back on, so return home, to find no power.
Tracker still says all is well.
Contact them - "your power will be restored at 2pm today". Erm, it's 3pm already. Sigh.
