    That is quite a shade of pink isn't it.... Yes, I would be tempted to keep it.

    The  suite colour really doesn't work with the tiles it would probably be simple to swap out the suite for a similar fit 
    but if you're doing it anyway  retiling would be better as well.

    Generally a strange state to leave your lounge for photographing.

    What on earth does one do with all those ovens?  There appear to be three.

    Microwave, full size oven, and a split oven/grill (at a guess).

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.

    Doesn't look like any microwave I've ever used, but then mine was made in 1983 and is still in daily use...

    Snap.  Mine's early 80s but I can't quite remember when.  I hope it lasts forever as I never see mechanical that can time down to 5 seconds these days. Toshiba do not seem to make them any more and no wonder when they built them so well they never need replacing :smile:

    I like the look of that one, and the mechanical timer looks clever.  Ours is a Panasonic Genius with fully electronic programming and a vacuum fluorescent digital display.  I worry about the latter failing, but the mechanics of the thing seem indestructible.  Perhaps they had to stop making such good ones on the basis of repeat sales being unlikely!
