In an Ideal World, no.

In reality, back around again at 10pm.

10pm?
I’m getting withdrawal symptoms already

Blimey Dynamo would be proud of this Fabulift demonstration by this business entrepreneur.
But,not meaning to be rude obviously,she would be better investing in a set of scales…

You best text in and ask if they have more, then hope they bring them back sooner.

That clock looks like something you make each month with those magazines from wh smith

It's often quite a mess outside, always stuff piled on top of the bins as well. Maybe it's waste stock that even he doesn't want.

That makes me think of Onslow and Daisy’s front garden in Keeping Up Appearances.

Mike selling fragrances again says it's unisex but it says pour femme in the product information.... It's worser than Wembley market shenanigans

Perhaps he’s related to Alison Young on QVC who’s always harping on about suitable for all genders.

Funny you say that, the other night (when he was flogging the blood pressure monitors) he treated us to a story about the refuse collectors where he lives. He was careful to tell us first that the residents of Mikeland, in County Mike, pay an astronomical amount in Council Tax (this might have been mentioned so that any viewers who live in cheaper areas - also known as hovels - would realise how poverty-stricken they really are). Anyways, apparently the refuse collectors refused to empty his bin, because there were 'one or two extra items on the top'. 'Nah, mate, can't empty that, too many.' I think as he was telling the story, Mike's blood pressure was going up: he then repeated words to the effect of 'when I think of what we pay in Council Tax'. Newsflash, Mike: it's pretty general that refuse collectors won't empty bins where the lid won't close because the bin's been over-filled - it even happens here, in wildest Essex (the horror of it!) and second newsflash: it doesn't matter a flying elephant how much you've paid in Council Tax, it applies in most places.

Let's see that Fabulift stuff work on Sally Jacks. Then I'll be a believer.

An absolutely random and ridiculous comment. After having watched the face lift (on mute) for over 15 mins, I've changed channel and now watching Henry Danger: and I cannot stand the kid's 'boss'. So, I'd rather watch that than this What's that say about the presentations on IW? (Not to mention my TV viewing )

I think the story involved a few extra items to the side and they wouldn't take them, he said something along the line of he went all old man on them.

As you say most now won't take extras.

Come along OfTheMasons get Joe to show how to remove the paddle from that loaf he's just taken out....

 

[Muttley]

They all over the place these days.
I've seen similar machines in LIDL previously and there are loads on amazon generally speaking cheaper than IW.
Can you remember how much it was from your local pharmacy?

My pharmacy has a basic one for £30 and a more expensive one at around £50. I need to ask the pharmacist what the difference is before I buy it.

 

[Wanderer]

This looks v similar (to me) to the Homosmart bread maker thats the PoD - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Biolomix-Stainless-Maker-Dual-Machines-Gluten-Free-Dispenser/dp/B0BHKMG27Y

The brand name could be misread.

Edit - OfTheMasons taking the rise out of Alex. He'll have Emma after him!

Digital monitors are ok to give a basic idea of blood pressure reading but the aneroid sphygmomanometer (manual machine with stethoscope) is far more accurate. Also you can hear different sounds which is indicative of health.

Why do hospitals use digital monitors then? When I was in hospital for my mastectomy operation and my abdominal hysterectomy they only ever checked my blood pressure with digital machines?
