Re: Re: Anyone automated a cooker timer?

["Jon Payne" <jgpayne@xxxxxxx>]

I had a valve powered alarm clock when I was young - it was a valve radio
with a mechanical clock on the front of it used to turn the radio on in the
morning! BTW I'm only 29 :)

Unfortunately one morning smoke started coming out the back of it :-(

Would love to still have it now..
