        So you just have to time it right and whip it out at the right point?

            Still it's your microwave. He didn't seem to do any lasting damage but I stopped it quite quickly once the sparks started flying.

            I need some worcester sauce to make cheese on toast now.
            While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

              Turn the toaster on its side. It works well until the spring triggers...

                You can do potato waffles in the toaster too. In fact, don't they sell special bags so you can do toasted sandwiches in the toaster without the stuff escaping and ruining it?

                    I saw this:


                    Toast and egg maker


                    What other stupid gadgets are there that you'd buy and use once? Does anyone want to admit to owning them?
                    Bought me old man the toast and egg maker. Hes 80.

                    To be fair he likes it. Easy to use etc.
