Things that were bought, put into the back of the cupboard after about 2 weeks and then appeared 20 years later at car boots  ;D

I found ours messy  ::)

Cheese which runs out of the toast with tomatoes - but be warned, they will be HOT  ;D

Didn't they toast only one side of the bread .........

In the back of the cupboard along with: ice cream makers, bread machines, keep fit cycles ........

Have you looked at Argos on-line or other companies, how about Lakeland?

I have a single Breville one. I have to  wipe it immediately, after taking the sandwich out, with paper roll as if you leave it, it is so difficult to clean.

I use a George Foreman grill thingy. You don't get the hard bits round the out side. I used to have a huge one but now just the small one.

You can buy the sandwich pockets for the toaster but I have never tried them.

I love my Foreman and they make great toasties. I sometimes have a notion for a sweet one. Banana and chocolate....yummy.

Well something different that you could try is a pannini press. They will do a toastie as well.

I am very fond of a panini too.

I have loads of unused stuff although I am more restrained these days although I really fancy one of the fryer things that only use a tiny amount of oil. They are so expensive so I have not bothered.....as yet.

I discovered ours at the back of a cupboard a few days ago.  I must give it to son.  We haven't eaten bread for over a year so it's no good to us.

The toastie bags are really good, but do find you need to use a medium loaf, or it doesn't fit in......make yummy toasties though. :)
