I take it that means that, as well as your oven, your grill is bust too .  >:D

Musing idly, as one does, I decided that if I were ever to open a café, I'd call it "The Toast Office".

Oh, and in that vein - does your poorly designed toaster make you want to "go toastal"?

You should have used the CRO rule, always get at least 2 CRO's , the 2nd one to help repair the 1st if it fails |O

Seriously though, that really is a bad design flaw, it should have been treated as basically 2 x 2 slice toasters but sharing a case.  The not only would it be "green" because you would only be using half the elements if you only wanted 1 or 2 slices, but if the scenario you describe happened, then you could drop extra slices in and they would be ready independently of yours, thats a serious design fail right there. 

On other news, more TEA related, today I got my RS invoice for the calibration of the 3478A, the cost was £0.00 and seeing as I was able to do a self calibration using the limited equipment I have to hand, and it seems to be reasonable as it concurs with the various references I have and also of course the plethora of other meters, I'm kinda thinking that this needs to be flagged up to someone at RS in authority in order to prevent this from happening with anyone else's meter and it might also throw into question the validity of some of the meters that they have done and issued certificates for?

Just plug your pecker in the 4th slot and have done with it, man... life's too short.  :-DD

If you need more toast than 2 slots will provide, you need to thin out the brood; if they have to have toast because you're having toast, sure it's the right thing to drop a couple slices AFTER yours are done. But once that's done, the rest is THEIR assache... along with putting up the butter/knife/jelly/spoons.  :o

This house does not come equipped with a "kitchen bitch". You dirty it, YOU make it clean.

Got my DPD notification that new Rigol is arriving tomorrow. I noticed Telonic will give you a £10+VAT discount if you don’t want the “free” multimeter. The “free” multimeter is a shiny DT830 one you can get from CPC for £4 so the word “free” is a bit misplaced.

Here’s what the “free” DMM is good for. This one came with the last order:

Is that the "free gift" they send you so you're not allowed to be torqued off that the actual 'scope didn't arrive anywhere near the advertised delivery time? They're STILL playing that game?

Bastards! Now I have to smell all those delicious carbble-hydrapes!

Back.... back you fiends... back to the depths that spawned you!!!
