It is perfect for one person living alone as it means I do not have to put on the oven, so it saves electricity. If you look on line at the Lakeland catalogue you will see exactly what it is like.<br />Beachcomber - my lasagne was already cooked when I bought it but it was frozen. I put it into the Remoska in its metal foil dish and it took about three quarters of an hour to defrost and heat - it doesn't cook much quicker than an oven it is just that it uses much less current.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-12529757187405159632018-02-10T12:41:16.753-08:002018-02-10T12:41:16.753-08:00How interesting about your grandson, good he gets ...How interesting about your grandson, good he gets to see where his grandfather lived though I suspect he wouldn't recognise Shanghai now.Mac n' Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05732924562630675589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-81442129157301240252018-02-10T12:35:54.912-08:002018-02-10T12:35:54.912-08:00Another fortnight.Another fortnight.Rachel Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053924416805878169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-55198074046197252322018-02-10T12:30:36.192-08:002018-02-10T12:30:36.192-08:00I place the bin out on the morning the recycling ...I place the bin out on the morning the recycling lorry comes with the lid so it does not catch the wind.
