tim Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Hi Guys and Girls this might seem a B cheek. I am looking for a free standing working cooker. This is not for me I am trying to help a small family have a better Christmas. I know there are lots of people out there that need help at the moment! But I believe these people cpould do with a break. So if there is a cooker anywhere near me ( Wickham, Hampshire ) I would be really grateful. And the Christmas dinner I am providing for them will be cooked properly!!! Seasons Greetings to everybody TIM Quote

Zugara Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Have you not tried gumtree or fareham freerecycle Tim? Quote
tprice Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 not exactly free tim - but if you look on ebay and watch some of them dont sell, they are only up for about £10, maybe worth a shot if you cant find any for free? Quote

MITZ@CougarStore Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Tim, great gesture, if I know of anyone replacing their cooker I’ll be sure to let you know… Quote
ds2000 Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Tim, where are you based? From memory my g/f bought her folks a new one a year back and I'm almost certain the old one is in the garage. Trouble is the garage is in the SY21 postcode area. If its of interest I'll ask Beth if its still about. Dave edit: Ah just reread your post - I don't know if it would fit in her Corsa but if it does she could bring it as far as Reading..... Quote
glrnet Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Great effort Tim, top man ^^ What they all said Quote
tim Posted December 14, 2011 Author Posted December 14, 2011 I am in Wickham, Hampshire Cant see a cooker fitting in a Corsa though Dave Many Thanks Quote
ds2000 Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Beth's checking to see if it works still (we're pretty sure it did) and we'll try getting into the car with the seats down (like a challenge) if you're happy to collect from Reading? Quote
SwanageDave Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Tim are you on facebook? we have a page and i think other areas do for items free or for sale in and around the area, ours is items for sale or free in and around swanage, try a search people are allways trying to get rid of them, good luck and well done Dave Quote
tim Posted December 15, 2011 Author Posted December 15, 2011 Hi Dave Beth Real good of you to give it a try I will come to Reading regards TIM Quote
ds2000 Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Hi Tim, Beth says its all working and the reason they changed it was her previous boss was having her kitchen done out and didn't need hers so Beth took it as a chance to upgrade. Depending on who's coming to Reading with Beth on Sunday we'll try and get it into her Corsa, failing that we might be able to borrow her Mum's 307, failing that it'll have to be after Xmas unfortunately. I've got a photo of it if you'd like? It should probably be in a museum really Quote
tim Posted December 15, 2011 Author Posted December 15, 2011 Hi Dave Fantastic news I will wait for you to contact me My business no 02380 732195 answer machine is always on that number Many Many Thanks TIM Quote
ds2000 Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 No worries Tim, I'll be sure you have a message one way or the other by Sunday Quote
HaydnH Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 If that free 1 falls through, Argos do a new electric cooker for £169.99, I'd bung in £25 as a start. Quote
tim Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 Glad to say this has been taken care of. many thanks for all the good wishes and suggestions Quote
