Electric Blanket

Neil from Rangiora

Does anyone have a Goldair Queen electric blanket they no longer want or is not working because the plug is broken?? One of the two plugs is broken on mine and rather than buy a whole new blanket, if I can find a replacement I could use it.

One of the two plugs is broken on mine and rather than buy a whole new blanket, if I can find a replacement I could use it. If someone had a blanket I could either provide them with a spare plug or I could buy a plug off them as typically, you can't get parts for them! Photo shows what I need!

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom

I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers.

There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
