Ive heard that some fridges have elec icecrushers that would be very useful right now.

Ice cubes are ok but crushed ice put in your drink or cordial would be great.
Maybe I could get a small elec machine somewhere ?

Thinking about it, a good food mixer would probably do the job...
Ill have to pay more attention next time I watch Ideal World !

A freezer bag (or teatowel) and a rolling pin do the job

They have ice makers, and they are useful, they dispense chilled water as well.

We have an American fridge freezer with water and ice dispenser.

I can't live without it, I drink a lot of water and ice all year around.

It has water, ice cubes and ice crusher.

Also it's a Samsung so I'm pretty confident there are parts in this country.

Micheal Caine got under contract... prob the Harry Palmer movies... and found himself on
a weekly wage of £10,000 per week
(BACK in the 60s of course !)

The first thing he did was to go out and buy himself one of those big metalic, American fridges..

( not many people know that ! )

Smeg?

They'd have never called them that in an uncircumcised country.

Smeg fridges aren't American, they're Italian (I used to have one).

Big bags of crushed ice can be bought for £1 from Asda. I find that's the easiest way

Was at my brother's house in the States last week, the benefits of having Margeritas on tap were considerable.
