	I like the speed and able to control gas hobs....but having a halagan hob last time that was pretty good. Also if you have a power cut you can still make a cup of coffee if you have gas ja...x

	I have a gas hob but lecky double oven. Used to have a ceramic hob with a double oven which was freestanding. Before that was a gas hob and separate gas oven which I loved, it has a spit feature. However that was before all the safety features which every cooker needs to have today. MIL used to have a lecky oven and hob which I didn't like. I think the newer one's are much better

	I could do that cooking Cynths !!! It is just the cleaning I am struggling with!! Perhaps you could give me some tips ??? Bear in mind that I have been VERY ill for over 2 years and so that is how long my house has been neglected for !! The area around my cooker - tiles and worktop have a lot of grease which is very stubborn to remove (OOOhh I hate to have to admit this as it sounds VERY horrible) !! Do I need to buy a steam cleaner thingy or would your bleach solution help ?? On second thoughts - perhaps I need to move house ??? Dea Xxx

	Yes Ja..x it has 4 grill settings....now hoovers... JB decided to allow the upright (which is about 8 months old) to chew the cable to bits and expose all the wires So yesterday we said lets open up the hoover, cut the cable and re connect it...bingo.. We extracted 42 screws and finally got to the wires...said hoover is now in two plastic bags on the drive! Sigh......................
