I HATE AIRING CUPBOARDS

Love to meet you all. A lot of British visit a small town south of here that has the Lynchburg distillery where they make Jack Daniels whiskey.

Saw one of the instant bolied water taps recently called a Quooker..but same thing.

Yogurt was what I used my airing cupboard for and for dough! Now the combi does not require a water tank I just use the cupboard for towels etc and put the dirty washing basket in the space where the water tank was!

Bed linen in the under bed drawers.

Very cold here in Dundee. Taking an Easter 2 week break from the grandchildren and DS.
Sadly the heating in the house is broken and we have been here since Saturday... the part needed not available until Tuesday. .Would give anything for the airing cupboard!!!
DH and I have been sitting with hot water bottles on our knees like a pair of brass monkeys.
Went on the bus with our bus passes to Aberdeen just for the warmth....sunny there!! Roll on tomorrow and I can put the washing away in a warm airing cupboard.

Envious, was there about 3 years ago + "You know Who"s Mansion in Memphis .

Naniej , same thing , different name

Envious - love Tennessee, beautiful state!

I miss my airing cupboard - I had a large water tank taken out and it made room for the shower. I used to put bedding and towels on a couple of shelves, seedlings to grow on another, bread dough on yet another shelf, and a demijohn or two of wine to bubble away on another - brought my home made wine on a treat.

I would also love to have a walk-in pantry - just not enough room in this little house.

I have an airing cupboard/wardrobe which has hot water pipes going up the walls.
I hang my summer or winter clothes in there and above has several shelves for bedding, towels and spare duvets.
I have to take step ladders in there to reach stuff on the top shelf!

My favourite visit was to the JD distillery, Envious. A very funny afternoon with some great characters.

Embarrassed to say I've not toured the mansion.Not much of a fan.I did past by it once going to the zoo.What else did you see?

Thought you were talking about Dundee for a few seconds.

Whenim64, did you notice the smell of whiskey in the air? Did you eat at Miss Mary Bobos?

May I ask what the moon represents? Boredom?

Well, it was originally supposed to signify "Goodnight" or a sort of signing-off emoticon, but I think Nonu just likes it!

The moon is to say 'goodnight' *Envious'.

Yes, fried chicken and catfish at Mary Bobo's, and JD's had the smell of whiskey in the air - beautiul surroundings

hope you had fried okra also and some kind of cobbler for pudding?

Yes, the okra and caramel-ly apples with whiskey liberally plashed in there

....should say 'splashed'

Yum...I've baked sliced apples and put J.D.in them for Thanksiving.Guess we should go back to airing cabinets.

No. You carry on. I like the sound of all this appley/whiskyish food. (yum)

Just popping off to find some recipes. (for DD to cook for me)

worth buying a bottle of whisky for

Some good recipes on that site! I noticed the chicken salad used Miracle whip which is a sweeter form of mayonnaise if anyone wasn't sure about it. Yum!

Really miss not having an airing cupboard. I thought/think they are great.
Unless you left your linen in too long and you would have to wash it all over again because of the yellowing at the folds etc.

I could not put bedding sets in a pillowcase. Very difficult to put a 10 feet square sheet into a pillowcase. Believe me I have tried.

My son has one of those Quooker (?) instant taps and OH and I find the taste
unpalatable.
Basically you are drawing water from a boiler, however long it has been sitting there.

I am a huge fan in fact have been twice , will tell you a bit more later Envious



ANA , is right I just like the symbols , little things mean a lot .LAL

Johanna , each to his own . I would not be without mine for all the tea in China now. Laugh

To get back to airing cupboards, I currently have a cat in mine.

Plus towels, linen, knickers with the elastic gone, the odd sock department (by the time some of them meet their other halves, the yellowing means that the colours no longer match) the t shirt that I spent ages looking through every damn drawer for, and a glass chandelier.
