Shamrocking appliances to celebrate St Patrick’s Day

March 16th, 2012

There once was a young man named Crocket,

Who kept putting his fingers in sockets.

They reviewed him one time at Appliances Online,

Now everyone wants one in their pocket!

Happy St Patrick’s Day!

Did you know that St Patrick’s Day marks the arrival of Christianity in Ireland hundreds of years ago? With all the green beer, parades and parties, who would’ve thought?

Here are a few St Patrick’s Day appliances to keep the Leprechaun at heart happy, brought to you by Appliances Online, who else?

Kick off St Patrick's Day day with green eggs and ham on a Morphy Richards toaster

Look at that, it's a Morphy Richards set! Follow breakfast up with a cup of green tea

Invite your friends over and celebrate in style by cooling the Guiness in the most appropriately coloured Smeg fridge

Uh oh, now you've made your friends green with envy because your fridge is so cool and your house is so spick and and span thanks to this awesome Electrolux vac

But that's OK, suggest this environmentally friendly and green Electrolux vac to them - it's made out of 55 per cent recycled plastic

Keri Algar

Having once had to sit on the washing machine to stop it from bouncing into oblivion, Keri is today delighted with the new (smoother running) technologies that make housework easier every day. A self-confessed lazy-bones, Keri seeks out quirky inventions that ease the human workload, such as the robotic vacuum cleaner (wow). And as soon as someone figures out a Jetsons-like self-cleaning house, she will happily lay her pen to rest and retire from appliance journalism. Until then, her pick is a fridge that will tell her smartphone when it's time to pick up more beer on the way home. Magic.
