It comes out straight up from the floor. I've learned how to cope with weakening hands. My problems now are the arm muscles; it seems I can't pull nor push anymore. So I now have get down on my hands and knees and, instead of pulling up, I wriggle the thing back and forth. One of my projects is to find an electrician and have him a damned switch on the thing. /BAH

It isn't considered defective by the manufacturer. I've been through all those steps. /BAH

Well, anyone who could find one could kill one and eat it. Unless they were people's pets I suppose. > That means that you all had guns. Very few English people shoot rabbits. Even ones like the welsh giants can be caught and killed more effectively. Also, as the war was on, you would be amazed how many guns were available. > I thought you were a gunless society It appears you have another preconception about WWII which needs a review. As an example, it was only the mid 1980s that automatic shotguns (SPAS-12 etc) were prohibited. There certainly are gun deaths in the UK today and it is more than possible to have a firearms certificate. >and that hunting was exclusive to royalty? Blimey. That may have been the case in the twelfth century. Can I suggest you re-assess your conclusions about British and European culture.

As it is an electric range you probably already have a separate switch at your electrical service. If you have circuit breakers it is an easy one to switch off. If you have fuses it will be the right hand big double pullout on the right side top, if you have the conventional 1950's 60 amp service installed in the usual fashion. |
