Hurry up and fix my oven!!!!
« on: November 07, 2010, 11:34:50 pm »
Grrrrr

It died on Wednesday, and it seems there is no rush to fix it  >:( - the joys of being in a rental!  I wouldn't care if it was the cook top.  I want to bake!!!!!!

Anyway, just wanted to get that out somewhere.

I would be very lost if my oven died. Hope it's fixed soon.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I use my BBQ as an oven. I hate cleaning anything especialy the oven but my DH cleans the BBQ. Problem solved.

Still not fixed  :(

Thanks maddy.  If only it was that easy.   :)

Thanks cookie.

Gert - I would never have thought of that.  Is it easy to do?  I have never used the BBQ at all, that's DH's department.  lol

faffa - Thank you  :).  I didn't know it was illegal.  The way our rent is set up we can't withhold it anyway even if we wanted to.  DH did read though that we should be entitled to reduced rent if they don't hurry up and fix it!

Anything you can do in the oven you can do in a BBQ..... so long as it has a lid! ;D ;D

Thanks Gretch.

It's finally booked in for this Friday.  Please be a quick fix (or a whole new oven), either way I'll be happy.  ;D

Hope it gets fixed quickly for you!

My dishwasher is broken down and I'm finding that's a PITA too. :-\

MJ - that would be a pain!  Hope it's fixed ASAP for you.

Still waiting for the guy to show up...

What should I bake first when it's fixed???  And is it rude to get it ready to bake while he's still here fixing it?  lol

I would have that cake mixture in the TMX ready to go - start whizzing when he arrives! I suggest ILB's Chocolate Bimby Cake.

Did it get fixed?

Are you baking now, or are you waiting for a whole new oven??
