I just buy the cheapest stuff I can find. That does.
Though I do often add a bit of 'blood, fish and bone' (yes, that is a 'thing') esp for hanging baskets (the plants are stuck with the nutrients they can find in the basket) and veggies.
Edit: just looked at the link you posted. Wow! The beach just went tropical!

Oh well, I was trying to look on the bright side as far as the Osteoporosis was concerned.
For mother-in-law the balance mechanisms in the brain had, unfortunately, been affected by the dementia. So, she could not stand up safely, and she could not remember that this was an issue for her. So, she had quite a few falls. Whilst she was in hospital, they put the sides up on her bed, so she made her way out through the foot end.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

We have some of them. We feed them anything that is going - if they are lucky. In a CBA gardening year they live without any added nutrients and they stilll grow.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

We wanted an integrated microwave which matched the other items, so we ended up with some clever microwave/oven/grill thing.
It's a clever concept. You can set it to automatically :-
a) zap the food with radiation to mortally wound any flavour present
b) oven cook the food so it is totally dry
c) grill the food to form an impenetrable crust on top.
Aint technology great
WE got one of those to keep worktop space clear. Turntable failed just out of warranty so we wouldn't want to buy the same brand again....but of course any alternative won't match the other oven or hob. Instead we are using a worktop version of the same thing, much more reliable/hard wearing and 1/4 the price
I think....0 -

I feel your pain!
Ours is a German brand, but such is the interlinked nature of manufacturing now, when I looked on the back it said Made in Britain.
£800 for a fancy microwave and our magnetron dies .... but within warranty (luckily).
I still like it, coz it's err shiny. (sad)0
