Take this to it's logical extreme, central block toasting.

Share the load of toasting between multiple households. Can be shortened to CB..

Much like everything else on the blighted isles we nicked all the good and diverse bits from other places so it’s a fair cop :britain:
It does get a bit problematic at times, like that thing where seppos mocked British Chinese food to the point where they sounded identical to an old Bernard Manning skit putting on an accent and going on about pork balls, and British Asians loving told them that.

Same with British Caribbean food, the bad part was all the slavery and genocide, not the fact that there's a bunch of people who consider themselves as British as Andrew Bonar Law and make a delicious beef patty.

There's no way to differentiate that from some false idea of 'actual Britain' without sounding like Nick Griffin going on about how he's an indligious britan and there taking all the whites away. Even the so-called Anglo-Saxon invasions involved people from the Malian Empire bringing trading goods to the south coast.

The look on his daughter's face as he serves is funny as hell and retroactively even funnier after you learn she turned out just as bad as him.

Always liked Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe joke about it; if you don't like the food you can always send it back where it came from.

The owner of Royal Mail has accepted a £3.5bn bid for the postal company from a Czech billionaire after he ramped up the value of the takeover, creating a political headache for the government.

I think that leaves the NHS as the only essential service that's not entirely under foreign ownership?

I will join you as soon as I finish this crispy duck pancake and chicken with cashew nuts

Sometimes I look at the Chinese places on Just Eats and think about ordering something a little more authentically Chinese and then I remember how a forkful of crispy sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice tastes and snap back to reality.

I did have a really delicious salt and pepper chicken when I was in manchester off the noodle bar but my local doesn't do it which is a shame.

Will stick with my peking ribs and prawn fried rice.

Next time you’re in Manchester go to Salt and Pepper, I think they’re still based in Blackdog Ballroom in the Northern Quarter. They had to move from the Arndale market because they were too busy and they’d have had to invest in better ventilation. Absolutely unreal bit of lunch.

Boil water warning after parasite found

People across south Devon have been advised to boil their tap water as 22 cases of a diarrhoea-type illness have been confirmed.

A further 70 suspected cases are also being investigated.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said the parasite, cryptosporidium, was "predominantly a waterborne disease".

Infections can be caused by drinking contaminated water or swallowing it in swimming pools or streams.

South West Water (SWW) said the Hillhead reservoir and the wider Alston area was being investigated as a potential cause for the outbreak.

Dr Lincoln Sargeant, director of Public Health in Torbay, said about 40,000 people get their tap water from the reservoir.

“In terms of people who have actually been affected we have to date 22 confirmed cases and about 70 to 100 people have contacted their GP with similar symptoms over the last few days.”

SWW has urged residents across Brixham, Boohay, Kingswear, Roseland and north-east Paignton to boil their tap water.

A heads up if you have friends or family in the area.

I think they might have a stall in the Piccadilly market now, coulda been that! For something a bit different, the Jian Bing hut outside Burgee King is awesome and not something I’ve ever eaten elsewhere.

Black Dog closed?!?! Aw gently caress, I made a lot of bad decisions in there, it will be missed.

I don't know if anyone remembers my post a few months back about getting scary letters demanding money I didn't owe from HMRC and my separate post more recently about somehow overpaying my student loan by £2000 or so.

Turns out the two things were linked! HMRC sent that money to Student Loans in error and were charging me for it. Now SLC has sent the money back to HMRC and I got what's as close to an apology letter from HMRC as I guess I'm going to get.

Somewhere in all this I'm getting a cheque for £377.00, which I'll send to Gaza.

So my toaster, which has a microchip in it, and is old enough to have seen me through two great recessions, several moves, and a pandemic, as well as being in an an actual museum seems to have finally died beyond the point of repair.

Which leaves me in a blind spot worthy of an Adrian Chiles op-ed. Do they still do toasters any more or is there just an app? How is butty form? Is everything an Amazon/AliExpress Quaffworf branded plorplap now?

But in all seriousness, what thread recommendations are there for toasters that are good for multiple breads without being a giant cube of kitchen space consumption these days?

Get that £400 Japanese toaster that only toasts one slice of bread, but toasts it so perfectly that it makes you stand up and take a walk when you bite down. As a bonus
