Our most interesting and useful wedding gift was a Baby Burco Boiler. So invaluable back in those heady days of Terry Towelling Nappies. Aah those were the days!

I would have felt shocked that someone would use the word “of” as a verb

Not Addis, but the only thing there I haven’t got is the carpet sweeper, but I do remember using one. They are vintage treasures now,

You can buy carpet sweepers at Bunnings (and many other places) for about $35 I use one all the time. Much better than a vacuum cleaner, ready in an instant, don’t need power or charging and pick up dog hairs like no other device.
Wouldn’t be without one

shouldn’t it be “how would you have felt”? - it changes the whole direction and tenure of the discussion eh??

I was happy with any gift as we had nothing when we got married…have to admit though I wasn’t best pleased when on our first anniversary my hubby presented me with a frying pan…could have happily hit him over the head with it

Oh that’s so sad! I bet he’s more than paid for that by now though

Ah yes, that nappy wash boiler. Luckily, our came free via older friends who had definitely completed their family. Although pleased to receive the 2nd hand Burco boiler, I was at the time alarmed at the speed the leccie meter wheel whizzed round when it was boiling. Also that certain exclusive smell when the nappies were boiling has never been forgotten

Hi, Bruce, can probably buy them here too, but I’ll stick to my Dysons. Big & hand held.
