[Archived] I couldn't do without ...

[adopted scouser]

Anything you use all the time and couldn't do without ?

I've had one of these for over ten tears, use it most days and only use pans when I do a roast ! Cost me £90 back then, worth every penny.

Gadgets wise my iPod and Kindle. Got well over a hundred days of music, podcasts and audiobooks on the iPod and about 200 books on the Kindle. That, combined with my mind would mean I'd not go crazy if I had to spend a few months alone, providing I had an occasional power supply.

A counter top cooker, use it all the time

My (sony walkman)mp3 player is probably the most used gadget I have after my laptop and mobile, Without my mp3 player at work, id actually have to listen to the brain damage inducing rubbish the supervisors/managers and general gobs#### had to say!

I'm still none the wiser, does this really exist or is it a hoax?

Surely everyone would have one!

English breakfast is a breeze. Chuck it all on there, bacon tomatoes hash brown (from frozen) spam, all cooked perfectly and crispy (not like a microwave).

Plus all the muck drips onto the tray below

It just seems very wrong, where does the heat come from?

Grill in the dome plus a fan, and it uses infra red > http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nu-Wave-Oven-Pro/dp/B0009RP87O

Other than that you normally have to pre-heat a gas/electric oven(only takes 10 minutes), I don't see how its any better(unless you don't have space for an oven) or easier to clean, when using the oven I normally fit all i'm cooking onto 1 oven tray(so just one thing to clean) and most importantly i doubt you can fit a frozen pizza into that.

it is a nice gadget though.

Does it cook thoroughly if you put loads of stuff in? I've got a halogen oven but it does work more like a grill in reality. If I try to do pizza then the base is always a bit underdone. If I put quite a lot of stuff in there the bottom stuff will barely warm up.

No complaints here, I don't bake or anything but you can cook stuff straight out of the freezer

My Logitech Harmony555 universal remote is a bit of a forgotten hero in my home, without it id be juggling at least 6 remotes, havnt found a single device(old or new) that it cant control, cost about £50 5-6 years ago but been worth every penny.

Haha, you'd have to put your tv on your things you couldn't live without if you're going stick a remote on it.

I just assumed tv, dvd/blue ray player, sky/cable/Freeview box was just a given(more parts of the furniture than gadgets!)

My wedding ring.......feel naked without it.

Daily newspapers. Love 'em.

[Plastics]

Do you need the physical copy or will online suffice?

[Andy]

Definitely my tv.

Big, HD, flatscreen-y type thing.

My Rolex Submariner.

Proper inky newspapers...the ones that keep journalists in jobs.

And damage the environment

Positives and negatives.

[jim mk2]

I cannot think of many things more damaging to the environment than plastics.

I like the feel and look of a newspaper, and I like to hold it in my hand. I enjoy looking at the layout and design. If / when newspapers no longer exist I will not read the online versions.

Despite having an Aga we use one of these 'Health Fryers' most days Nick.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Breville-VDF065-Health-Fryer-White/dp/B007EQXDUW/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1360355121&sr=1-1

Food cooked in that is absolutely fantastic and very healthy due to very low use of oil. (One tablespoon of oil cooks chips for 4 and meat bastes itself and leaves any fat in the bottom.)

I wouldn't wipe my behind on one, there completely irrelevant bs comics.

Newspapers are nothing but another form of thought control by TPTB.
