I've got a rogue light on my stove that's just always on now. What kind of light? So you know when you use an element and then you turn it off, it goes on to say, don't touch the back right. Oh, you've got an electric element, eh?

Yeah. Don't touch the back right because it's hot. Yes. Well, I haven't even used that and it's on 24-7. You're stuffed. You're stuffed. I'm stuffed. It says it's on, but it's not.

No, it doesn't say it's on. It says it's hot. Like it's been on. It's been on. But it hasn't been on and it's stone, but it's not. No, it doesn't say it's on. It says it's hot. Like it's been on. It's been on. But it hasn't been on and it's stone cold. Shit. Shit. Like, fuck.

Do you know what? Because then it's going to start working properly again and you won't know. And you'll be like, no, that's not actually hot. The light's broken. And then you'll burn yourself. And I'll go to lean on it. Like I quite often lean on my elements. You do lean on your elements.

While I'm cleaning. I've seen you. Yeah, yeah. And it's going to burn yourself. And I'll go to lean on it. Like, I quite often lean on my elements. You do lean on your elements. While I'm cleaning. I've seen you. Yeah, yeah. And it's going to burn you. Or, like, is my stove just going to take on a mind of its own and just start turning on now that the electrics are up the... It's trying to kill you. It's trying...

Yeah, like, what do I do? Like, do you need a whole new stove? Yeah. You do, because yours is embarrassing. It is embarrassing. It's the old age. No, but, so when I moved in there six, eight, seven years ago? How long have I been there?

I reckon me in the middle. I'd say nine. Yeah, so I've been there eight and a half years. When I moved in, it was a really cheap, it's not even branded. It was like standalone. New Zealand brand, never heard of it before in my life. Like Pamco, and you're like, okay, whatever that is. I think it's that one of those.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it's Pamco. Pamco or something. Pamco, whatever that is. P-A-L-M-C-, yeah, yeah. I think it's Palmco. Palmco or something. Palmco, whatever that is. P-A-L-M-C-O. No, P-A-R-M-O or C-O. And I've never heard of that brand in my life, but it was new because I think it was super cheap.

Yes. And they just wanted a new oven in there. I did the same when I built a house. I'm looking at it here, Palmco appliances. Yeah, and European inspired design. Inspired. Yeah. There's your word.

European inspired. It's got you covered up to seven years. Just out. Shit. Just out. Just out. But also, I never bought it. I don't have the receipt.

So I don't know. You've got the palm cover. Yeah. It would have a SKU number on it. Anyway, so I'm assuming now I'm going to have to buy a new one because this red light's on all the time. I can't have it. This is the first. It's time for a new kitchen.

You've been dilly-dallying about doing a full kitchen. You've pulled that out. You might as well pull the whole thing. We don't do Renaults in my house. Oh, I know. Actually, I don't know why I'm encouraging you. Hey, you want to ruin your life? Why don't you renovate your house?

Do a Renault. Yeah, exactly. I've got a cheap oven as well. Ours looks fancy because it's a six burner gas hob. Oh, yeah. And it's got the appearance, but I think it's European inspired. Inspired. Do you know what?

It's inspired. Isn't it nice getting New Zealand made? It's nice getting New Zealand made. If we're looking for a positive here. I want Italiano. I want Italiano. You want Italiano. I want Italiano.

I want another. I want the Germans. Fisher and Paykel. No, but see, this is the other thing. I Googled. I was like, oh, how much is a new oven? $200. Dude. $200. $200. Fucking, but see, this is the other thing. I Googled. I was like, oh, how much is a new oven? $200.

Dude. $200. $200. Fucking, fucking fuck. I know. Yeah, for a good one. Yeah, because my mum's one was old and a little bit

poked there and I thought we could all chip in and get one for her birthday and so we looked up almost the modern version of her. It was like $2,500.

Yeah, they're about, a good brand at an entry would be about two and a half. I want one of those ones that are like $23,000. Have you seen those ones that are like, they're Italian, they're old looking, and they've got like the brass knobs and the green. Oh yeah, they look like something Gran and Pop had in their. Totally.

Like a Colerange-esque vibe. Esque vibe. I'd love a Colerange. I really want one of those. There's a brand, I can't remember the name, but when you see one, you're always like, oh, my Lord. Why was it that the World War II bad guys are the go-to for kitchen appliances? I don't know, actually. The Germans and the Italians.

Yeah, I don't know. Yeah. Well, anyway, I don't know. So I'm probably just going to put a bit of tape over the light. Leftover tanks. I reckon that'll fix it. Falcon. Falcons are the ones I want.

There's one there. That's $15,000. Falcon. Falcons are the ones I want. There's one there. That's $15,000. Jesus. Dollars or euros? American dollars? American dollars. No, bloody way. What is it called?

Falcon. Falcon. Dick Smith? Gerard, I'm not buying a bloody oven from Dick Smith online. Dick Smith is online. Kogan. Is it a Kogan oven? No, it's a Kogan.

I've got to see the oven. I've got to open the flap to see if the muffins will fit in. Hayley, that's nice. Thank you. That Falcon burner is nice. Thank you. And you can get it, darling. You can get it in green.

Now, our kitchen is green and blue. Yeah, but you might get it in black. You'd need to win Lotto to buy that oven. Oh, yeah. I know. I'm not actually doing it. There's no way. That is very nice.

Very nice. Okay, well. Very nice. I shall well. Very nice. I shall tape over the warning light and live another day. Live another day. Or not live another day if my house burns down. Well, if you die, it was your time to go. Because you knew because your oven went ding and made that noise it does when the countdown time is done.

Time's up, bitch.
