Why would you do away with the cooker Rena? Would you live on salads and sandwiches?

I don't like cooking Berxer (had enough of doing meals over the years) and I think I could live quite well with just a microwave, toaster, kettle and maybe an electric griddle. If I wanted something special I would eat out or buy in readymeals to microwave.

Re: Doing Without

I would give up my microwave, I hardly ever use it anyway .... and my food mixer, I prefer to mix everything by hand.

Re: Doing Without

I could do without my mobile phone but I use every thing else. The thing I would get rid of, if I could, would be my iron, because I hate ironing.

Re: Doing Without

I'm glad to say my needs are few, I can do without all appliances, although I would miss the TV after a while. Two things, although not appliances, I could never do without, the pub and the bookies.
