fantastic kitchen! what’s the black stove for next to the aga(?), do they work together somehow?

ta :slight_smile: it’s a multi-fuel stove which used to be the centrepiece of a café the previous owners of the house once ran. It’s not linked to the cooker, which looks very aga-like but is a standard ceramic-hob electric oven deal. it replaced the god-awful hunk of junk the previous owners left behind, which tripped all the electrics in the house if not used in a very specific and not at all useful manner…

My nan also had that clock.

Kitchen is a piece of shit, way too small. The electric cooker is a joke, the flooring is coming up and there isn’t enough space. Only good thing is having my record player in the same room so I can listen to music while cooking/washing up.

We might be in a position to buy a place early next year and a priority is a decent kitchen that won’t drive my partner and I around the twist.

Close thread the only opinion we need.

Does that clock make that whirring sound at 11:40? Still gets me every time.

Yep

I find it strangely comforting

the full-size mural of Bobo Balde is on the other wall just out of shot…

I have a similar one that we had to move out of the bedroom as it’d freak me out every night.

Oh yeah. It’s all just wooden boxes anyway isn’t it.

:laughing: :+1:

Broadly happy with ours. Went for an under worktop fridge with fridge freezer in the garage which keeps it clean but maybe not the best idea on reflection. About a year old.

This thread made me annoyed with my kitchen more than usual. Got rid of the ladder shelf thing that did my head in and have put a little side unit thing in its place.

It means I cant shut the door if I keep it there but think it looks weird if I push it up closer to the black counter. So no door shutting it is.

Stupid shelf…

Makeover…

Everyone has a ‘bad cupboard’ in their kitchen right?

Y’know, where you keep all the sweets, crisps, biscuits & chocolate …maybe booze too ? Or is this only people who have kids?

All of my cupboards are bad cupboards then
