One of the things I knew would need replacing eventually in my new house was the stove. One of the elements had fallen down, and the oven didn’t seem to keep the right temperature. And then there was the ticking noise. It had a clock built in which didn’t keep the correct time, and would keep me awake at night with its loud ticking. We decided to try and stop the clock, and somehow ended up with the grill staying permanently on!
To be honest, I wasn’t really saddened by the demise of our brown beauty. Aside from it not working as well as I imagine it did in the 70s, the back of it is quite high (above the bench level) and the kitchen cupboard just bangs up against the oven, instead of being able to close properly. Below is the new stove, thanks to Price Pirate (same place I got my washing machine!).
