Fresh milk £1.45 for 4 pints in most big supermarkets.

 

[Lenny HB]

No, but there are plenty of other on-line options without going to the 'big two'.

But returning stuff can be hassle, with Amazon you take your return to the post office they pack it for you and your account is credited before you have left the shop.

£2 in asda , £155 for 2 pints. I just bought one on Friday. I didn't want another bottle going off before its date so I opted for the 2 pints but felt ripped off paying more for less

Blimey that must be posh milk.

9 times out of ten when I've had a problem with ebay stuff I've received a full refund and been told to keep the item. Its always been the cheaper stuff.

This alarm cost £13.50 , it was refunded the day before the bloody thing arrived as it was over a week late. Then before I could contact the seller ebay messaged me telling me they were removing them from sale.

Thing is if you Google myhome mydome smoke alarm there's quite a lot of reviews for those and other items from same company.

But it was obviously faulty.



I've found it now and sorted it

Mostly the price. In Europe I buy uht carton around €0.98 for 1 or under €6 for a pack of 6.

Here it's around £1.30 a carton and only 1 litre
Fresh milk is 4 pints for £2 or 2 pints for £1.55. So it makes sense to buy a 4 pint carton. I dislike shopping so I try to only do it once a week.

If I had an oven and grill lol I'd be having croissants or toast and wouldn't bother with milk at all.


But
The feckin fridge should be cold at the bottom lol.

If I had the space that you have, I would carry a ridge monkey for toasted sandwiches and one of those deeper double skillets for “oven” type cooking.

Yes I'll need to sort something out as I'm missing my oven already. I can see me removing the microwave next year and fitting a smev.

And I may have to invest in a bigger inverter.

Can't beat a double skillet. Really regret giving mine to my daughter years ago especially as she decided she didn't want it and then just dumped it! Really annoyed about that.

Agreed, ie, a Double Skillet makes a great cooker top oven, with enough capacity for two people, it's very versatile, and is normally used on a low flame for most dishes. If used properly, it can even do you a Sunday Roast Tam.

Cheers,

Jock.

Another battery, bigger inverter and an air fryer. Anything you can cook in an oven you can do in an air fryer but I've not tried a souffle that might be a bit risky. Also found the induction hob brillant for outside as not affected by wind.

Counter top oven - about £50 or less at Home Bargains - grill and oven - same size as a microwave but more useful

 

[Langtoftlad]

Go the other way... slow cooker.
Bung in whatever first thing, cooked by the time you arrive.

 

[pjay]

Why not try a mini slow cooker via your invertor, only take the power of a lightbulb, just bung stuff in the morning, leave for a few hours, jobs a good un.

edit Langtoftlad types faster

At the moment I've only a 300watt inverter

I got one especially for the van, some think it’s only for casseroles but you can put a chicken in it and by the end of the day it’s roasted, around 150w ….

 

[pjay]

We use a mini slow cooker, only 100w, she does a wicked thick pea and ham soup in it.

Great for stews, mince & tatties, bolognese, curries, boiling ham/gammon joints, etc, etc, Tam.

We popped ours in the MH sink with a gammon joint in it (but in a roasting bag, ie, no water), just before leaving Southport one year, and ran it off the 300w inverter.
By the time we arrived at Stratford upon Avon, the joint was cooked ready to dive into.

Jock.
