I've just made a tuna and tomato on seeded bread toastie in my Teflon coated NON STICK toastie maker!! 🧐

View attachment 698082

As you can see, it's not exactly non stick is it!!!!:thumbsdown:

Once I discovered the pan fry method I'd never go back to using a toastie maker. No constraints on the bread size, more adaptable and I find it quicker overall, especially when making a few for the family.

What are adverts... Those things you skip on ITV4 by Skip forward 1 min/Skip forward 1 min/Skip forward 1 min/Skip forward 1 min/Skip forward 1 min/Skip back 15 sec - 6 quick button presses on the PVR remote control? :whistle:

Tend to use them to get jobs done, load dish washer put kids to bed etc!

Traffic lights.

Temp ones for every little road work.

Permanent ones for every side road, even the local hotel has them so the posh guests can get onto main road after thier morning swim!!

Grey EVs With a blue light running across the back total virtual signaling!!🤣🤣🤣

Ugh, road near me has four sets of temporary lights in under 2 miles. My patience is tested!

The Premier Inn on N. Anderson Drive in Aberdeen has them. Not much use as drivers on the main road jump the first set of lights and block the exit and entrance which latter can cause massive traffic jams. Been there and caused the traffic jam by waiting till somebody with a conscience lets me in the entrance.

"Special" offer in Market Harborough Co-op today. I remember an Irish seller at an antiques fair shouting "Look at these chairs, £35 each or £80 the pair!". He was joking though. The Co-op was serious, apparently, although I didn't put it to the test - £2.30 each, any 2 for £4.80.

Did you get one, or two?

Our co-op had (I think) Banks’s bitter last week for £1.80, or 3 for £6.00. Obviously a new marketing ploy
