New Cooker

Today we’re getting the new cooker installed, and finally getting rid of the old shitty electric one.

We’ve opted for a gas cooker, as it’s infinitely preferable to electric. But because there’s no gas supply to the village at all, it means it’ll be fired using LPG bottles outside the house. We’ll see about the efficiency of it, but by all accounts it should work out pretty well.

It’s going to be interesting though – normally Hound would go in the car while this kind of work’s going on, but today my car’s in the garage, getting the brakes checked. At the last service I was told they’d need doing before the MOT comes up – and that’s due in the next couple of weeks as well, so it’s best to get it all out the way before the MOT.

So I’m not quite sure yet what I’ll do with Hound, but I’m sure we’ll work something out.
