oven/stove

I had to buy matches to start the oven and stove. My Mom says her Grandma Amy had one of these. One of the drawbacks of living in England, they are behind in technology. They still use radiators to heat houses. About 2% of the population has a dishwasher, Dave doesn't even know how to load one. Most people still hang their clothes up to dry instead of using a dryer. #1 reason I am not staying in this country after I graduate.

Isn't it such a shock the first time you get out of our blessed country and realize how many other people live? Not that this is new to you by now with all your travels, but it's crazy how even a place like England, where we would consider a lot like America, doesn't have such simple conveniences?

I'll take more pictures of the house and show you the rest.
I don't remember being this shocked when I lived in South Africa.
