I'm happy to say that it's white and blue, though. <BR/><BR/>The service department in Grey's of George Street have brought it back to life once, I would have to admit - it might be worth trying this.

It's an awesome beast, for sure, and you'll never replace him -- not with the disposable crap they make today. Poor you. I would just give up baking if I were you.

However I found mine more recently had a touch of dementia and kept trying to sabotage my diet with the tasty baked goods he would whip up. So I sent him to a new home via Freecycle, and his new owner literally whooped with excitement when she thought I'd put the phone down - made my day LOL!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04710705314805601363noreply@blogger.com
