What are your dream machines yet to be found?
I’m not sure!
What are your earliest and favorite appliance memories?
Holding the pipe for the twin tub while my Granny did the laundry.
What is the history of appliances you have owned?
My cooker was bought new as a wedding present in 1960, it was used daily until 6 months ago when the lady died and I bought it from her son, promising I would keep using it. My Teasmade was a Christmas present from a man to his wife and after his death she went into a home and decided not to take it, my husband bought it as a birthday present for me which seemed very fitting! It even has its original certificate and warranty.
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any major appliances?
The cooker needed a little bit of tlc, but not much. My husband is a white goods engineer so he is comfortable repairing most appliances.
