7 to 11 minutes is about how long sex lasts, from go to woe. Who needs an egg timer? :wink2:

I cooked my boiled eggs in El Microwave for 4 minutes and they were as hard as a rock

Surely that includes the 'after' fag and the time it gets to get to the pub to tell yer mates.

Who needs an egg timer?
You do, if you think it lasts that long. :wink2:

You obviously need a reminder on the two things mentioned here that should only take three minutes, one of them is boiling an egg. The other requires you to place a ciggie in a position so it is ready for after. The result of microwaving an egg for 4 minutes gives you an indication of what you need during. but not after

I thought I posted here about my new egg cooker but I must have dreamed it.
This one works nicely - I am eggstremely pleased with it.

I've discovered a flaw with this cooker and wonder how you deal with Chris - if yours does the same house-burning-down behaviour.

The Sunbeam unit has a 3 position switch: OFF - COOK - COOK-AND-SOUND-THE-ALARM

The problem is that if you forget about it for an hour then it will keep heating merrily away with no water in the tray - and the buzzer isn't loud enough to hear through a closed door either.

This has to be not quite legit in .au electrical standards, surely!

Ours is thermo controlled by the amount of water you put in. It has a physical spring loaded lever thermal thingy switch. Power on is push the switch up. When all water has evapourated the unit increases in temperature causing the bi-metal switch to click down and disconnecting power. If you don't hear the click it keeps cooking with residual temperature as it starts to cool down to ambient. I have had one apart to clean the switch contacts many many moons ago when Jimmy Christ and his younger brother Jesus used to played in the dirt together.

Doesn't sound right to me. This sounds like a job for a (gets trumpets ready) Foxidrive Initiated Recall (blows heavily into trumpets) tadaaaaaa
