A Remoska would also be good in this situation. Would have been more economical to use for the full three weeks, but you basically chuck everything in and it works like a mini-oven. I love mine!

They seem so expensive for what they are, especially as we'd get a proper fridge in a couple of weeks - even can fridges seem expensive. I asked on freecycle and we've been unlucky so far btu will keep trying

Have you tried borrowing a camping stove and say replace the gaz when you hand it back?
if you could get to the freezer then some freezer packs and a cool bag could be your fridge

i know what its like mine was like a bomb site for a month but luckly mum had old camping stove....

Things like pasta can be cooked in a thermos (preferably wide mouthed or it may be fun getting it out again) Add pasta + boiling water. Make sure you leave room for the pasta to expand and take up water - fresh pasta works best but you can do dried stuff too only you may need to check more and adjust as necessary.

if i was you i go to Argos or anywhere that's sells a camp stove only £10. their is one with a single burner and just as powerful as a home hob. then u can do sir Fry's in a wok only costs £3 from most supermarkets, with a pressure cooker you can do stews, veg, soups and meat. or with your pans anything you want. buy a washing up bowl and some washing up liquid and use your normal plates and cutlery as well by useing your kettle.

Dolmio do pouches of pasta and sauce (seperately!) that you heat up in the microwave and they do a bolognese one!

if you have a microwave, google micro meals it will come up with loads. I always make a jam sponge in microwave and its lovely, not so good though if you eating healthily. Most veg you can do in a microwave and certain meats you can too. Im sorry i dont have time to search for you but didnt want to read and run. hth
