This may just very well be the tipping point

 

Thought it was an AI upgrade module from Skaro.

 

Bacon butty machine for the garden office?

 

@adidan, we need @MLyons in here, he's the air fryer king. He says he cooks more than chicken nuggets in it, but I'm not sure.

I've not done chicken yet, but have done salmon, roast veg, bacon (it was crap), fish and chips

 

Well I hoped not to have to do this but, new mattress.

I really like the one I bought, and if I was not riddled with arthritis I would keep it. The problem is it is just too hard. I hoped the memory foam part would be thicker but it is not, and I am now waking up every 2 hours in pain before moving into another position, being in pain after 2 hours, rinse and repeat.

This just does not happen on my 15 year old all foam mattress at mum's. In fact, it is the best mattress I have ever slept on. Problem is I need to be able to sleep at home and I just am not. I wanted a Simba tbh. Their pillow is mind blowingly good, and after around 18 months it still feels as good as the day I got it. Problem is their foam mattress is £600. I mean, I can afford it but yeah tight bastud In the end I got a returned mattress. For £199. I paid £50 for them to take the old one away as it is half sprung and seriously heavy.



I would imagine even if it was slept in that they would have to clean it properly and replace the cover, so yeah I am down. I think that was a bit of a bargain and I am really excited to get it.

Also. I did think over getting a 3-5" topper but from past experience they like to slip and spit off the sheet (annoying AF) and the mattress I have now is already 12" thick. Which would make the bed too high to get in and out of.

 

@MLyons how do you fit a 12" pizza in one? Are they that big the drawers?

 

Sounds like you need a functional oven if you have those problems and the air fryer is good because its not broke yet

My family love doing cheese toasties in the air fryer, takes too long and is too dry IMO versus grill or sandwich maker but they love it.

 

Chips (fries for our USA friends) are way better in an air fryer than an oven.

 

They don’t clean it, they recover and stitch it closed.

There was a megathread on hukd awhile ago of people opening them up and finding what you didn’t want to find.. No worse than a hotel bed imo

 

OK noted, don’t open it lmao

 

There are things I'd never knowingly buy refurbished. Like mattresses, this is basically true for anything made of/with fabric that touches my skin.

 

I've done some reading and there are laws about them. They have to be exposed to a lot of UV, chemically cleaned and etc. I suppose growing up as a younger brother makes me less fussy, as most of the crap I wore as a kid was handmedowns lol.

 

I've got this one and just cut the pizza in to slices before cooking it

 

Afraid it's not that easy.

I have to make gluten free pizzas and finally found a flour that is amazing (gluten eater approved by my OH).

Trouble is until it's cooked it's a bit of a bugger to work with, no way it's getting cut in half.

Guess I could just make more smaller ones.

 

Do halves. I couldn't eat 4 slices!

 

Get yourself a Pizza oven, or a decent high temp oven in house, I have an Ooni Koda out door gas thing, an indoor Sage Pizzaiolo (expensive toaster ) and my Oven also has a Pizza setting which takes it to something like ~300, though it can't touch the 450-500C the Pizza ovens can it gets pretty high and with the right dough and prove Pizzas come out Pretty good, not Pizza oven good but good for home oven with lower temps.(I might be a Pizza fanatic..... )

 

Lol, now you are showing your age.
