You have every reason to feel good Jo. I have bought about half a dozen books for DD and that is it.

After trying ice cream this morning in my old ice cream making and it not working I went and picked this up. A bit naughty but I got it at a great price at the Breville factory seconds shop. The guy said I was very lucky to come in today because they only get one or two a month and they normally sell them straight away. Hopefully it will be a success.

I have the same ice-cream maker Wonder, you will love it.
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

Terrible news - the ice cream machine doesn't work  :'(  DD and I made up a mixture and started the machine but it's not cooking down. Will need to ring the shop tomorrow, so much for my great buy.

mrsb - the chop is in Smith St Collingwood. I've bought plenty of things there before without any trouble a lot of the things are because of broken boxes or have been the demo model and they all come with a 12 month warranty. The ice cream maker was $100 cheaper than in the shops.

What rotten luck Wonder. I've bought stuff from there as well with no problems, it's walking distance from my house which is a bit dangerous. Did they have another one in stock so you can swap?

I've tested it again this morning and still not working. They didn't have another one so not sure what will happen now, I hate having to wait for things once I've made up my mind so it will be interesting to see if they give me my money back or it will have to be taken away to be fixed.

Maddie, that shopping is amazing, we've looked at those puddings of Hestons but never bought one. I live the onesie.
