I used a shovel over an open fire a couple of times.

Dead cheap & you can reuse the shovel for other things like digging. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Any box will serve the same purpose at no cost, you probably already have a suitable one in your garage or loft.

The purpose of a bread maker is to take up space in a cupboard or on a work surface, right? That's what we used ours for anyway...

I've got one. Works fine but you have to get the ingredients measured right. Loaf shape is a bit funny but you get used to it. My advice is don't spend too much, a cheapo one is probably all you need.

It was also one of the most expensive at the time, but definitely worth it, as it's a superb machine. It makes excellent bread and, just as importantly, pizza dough. Making your own pizzas from scratch is great fun.

I've got that breadmaker too. It's great.

Next to my electronic cat deterent, fondue set, sandwich toaster, electric can opener and candy floss maker, it's my most useful gadget.

The only drawback with my bread maker is that the dough paddle sometimes gets detached and you have to rip the loaf apart to retrieve it but the birds are always grateful.

Were you ever a contestant on "The generation game" or "Blankety Blank" :rolleyes:

It's difficult to beat the smell of bread being cooked in your own home...we enjoy it particularly at the weekend. Put machine on. Have breakfast. Walk the dog etc etc. Bread is cooked ready for lunch...yum yum...quality cheddar, sundried tomatoes, Boursin, olives, etc etc....:thumbsup:
