Vacuum Cleaner.
Oh how I miss my vacuum. A broom just doesn’t do the job. Now maybe if we had a leaf blower...
Hair dryer.
Stupid stupid stupid me. I am not a girly girl and can’t stand women
who can’t live without their hair dryer.
Also, in the heat of Queensland’s
summer when we left on our big adventure, I figured that I could never ever possibly
feel the cold again. Therefore, a
hairdryer would be totally superfluous.
Big mistake. Big.
Toaster.
I am not a cereal eater. I eat toast for breaky every morning of my
life. I didn’t bring a toaster. For 2 months we went without toast. Vegemite on bread just isn’t the same without
the hot buttery toast. So I bought a
toaster. We now own 3 toasters. One is in storage in Queensland,
one is in storage in Victoria. Maybe they will all be able to meet up one
day and talk about how they were the next best thing after sliced bread...
Electric Jug.
We boil water on our gas stove with our
kettle. It is used very often for all of
those coffees and hot water bottles and hot water for dishes etc. Our kettle is also placed on the fire for
that special campfire taste. An electric
jug I can live without.
TV
We haven’t seen TV for 4 months and 3
days. We scoff at other travellers who
pull up their caravans or mobile phones and immediately put out their satellite
dishes and aerials with their backs to the beautiful views!!!! We don’t miss television in the
slightest. Although...ahem, can anyone
tell me the latest on LOST? Did they
make it off that damn island?
