Well It's not new. Not by a long stretch!

| The freezer we've had here for the last couple of years |
Since moving from our old place there's been a few things I've missed, like not having space for our chest freezer, this really makes it hard to preserve anywhere near the amount of food that we used to.
Our little one, shoved in the dinning room, not looking very pretty, has tried to keep up with all we want freezing. But by the time we've froze a few pots of apple sauce and a few rabbits and pheasants shoved in it, there is little room for anything else.

| Our new Bosch tall freezer - £30 was a bit of a bargain. A+ energy rating (the sticker was still on it!) |
Enter our "new" £30 freezer. Picked up from a job I've been working on last week. It's got a few knocks and scrapes but nothing a few fridge magnets won't cover up. It's going to have to live in it's little brothers place for now and it won't look great towering above us during meal times, but it will mean we can freeze a lot more and save more money in the process!
Sorry,but I got totally distracted.."WOW, look at Kev's cool cocktail glasses holder" ...then I realised...it's been a tough day.

That "cocktail holder" is an item that my wife loves and I love to hate. I frequently knock it over as it's quite top heavy, it takes up a lot of space, and is quite pointless.
DeleteBut my wife likes it so it stays!
A freezer is certainly a handy thing to have!
ReplyDeleteSure is. I need to go shooting now to fill it up a bit more!
DeleteI love my freezer. I never thought I'd say that but it is so handy. I wanted to tell you that I've just published my homesteading book! Shameless self promotion, I know, but I'm so excited I just want to tell the whole world. If you have a chance, please drop my blog to help me celebrate!
ReplyDeleteDon;t worry I don;t mind the shameless self promotion! I love reading your blog so I imagine a book of yours will be great as well!
DeleteLol
ReplyDeleteThe crappiest situation for a freezer
X
It will go back against the wall but it will still be there looking at us while we eat!
DeleteWe have a chest freezer but it needs a new gasket, the wife wants to get a new freezer but I think the old one can be fixed. We use it a lot but also loose stuff in it as it is so large and I have trouble keeping it organized as stuff gets moved around and it is a mess when I go to look for things. Small might be good.
ReplyDeleteYeah thats the trouble with a chest freezer. Everything gets chucked on top of everything else. I'm hoping the draws on this one will keep us organised!
DeleteIf you find another one for 30 smackers; I'm on the lookout. I need one with DRAWERS, so that I can actually see what's there!
ReplyDeleteI'll look out for one but travel costs might put the price up a bit!
DeleteBrilliant and for £30 well, it's a steal!!
ReplyDeleteI've got a "new" kitchen hob as well but I'll put that in another post when I've fitted it!

that was an absolute bargain. Will you build a cupboard around it?
