Title: Hello from the sunny Pilbara WA
Post by: kiwimel on May 03, 2012, 09:32:06 am

Hi everyone, I'm Mel and I live in the Pilbara region of WA.  I bought a second-hand thermomix three weeks ago and have been having fun trying it out.

Hi Mel, welcome to the forum.  If there's anything you need to know about your machine, just ask and very soon you will get an answer.  How old is your machine and why, oh why did the previous owner sell it  ???  Thanks for joining us, have fun with the machine and the forum.

hi I bet it is warm over there, it is freezing here south east Victoria, I'm sitting in the lounge heater going, jumper scarf and lambswool slippers LOL  and thick pants, just had a mental picture ....
Enjoy your TMX if you ever think what next just look on here for inspiration.

Hubby and I work in one of the iron ore mines, 2 days, 2 nights, 4 off so I have lots of time to play with the Thermomix lol.

It is about 2 1/2 years old and was owned by an older couple who used it, they told me, half a dozen or so times.  Their kitchen was very small and they had to haul it out of the cupboard every time they wanted to use it.  I got it for a little over half the price of a new one :)

It is still getting to around 30 during the day here.  I hear it is snowing on the Victorian Alps.  I prefer cold weather, coming from NZ originally of course lol.

I have been lurking around, looking at all the recipes while awaiting the MM's approval to join the forum.

Hi again Mel it sounds like a great buy, never put it in the cupboard, keep it really handy on the bench and if you can get some lemons try the homemade lemonade it is really refreshing.

Hi Mel, welcome to the forum.

You will love using your TM and it's great you bought it such a good price.

I'm envious you're living in such warm weather. It is freezing down in Tassie.

Have have fun. :)

Welcome Mel. You are very lucky to get your TMX for that price. The big secret is NEVER put it in the cupboard. If it has to be lifted out it will never get used.
