unconsumption:

The toaster that has lasted as long as the marriage… SIXTY years and still going strong 

They believe their toaster is the oldest in Britain.
And Fred and Joan Horley have no problem remembering just how old their appliance is.
The Morphy Richards device was a gift for their wedding which took place on May 23, 1953, and has been going strong ever since.
‘We didn’t consciously keep it it is just that we never had any reason to replace it. The only other thing I’ve still got from my wedding day is my wife.’

Sweet story.
