Lee, what you recommended was exactly what I had in mind, thanks. I must come and check it out!

I was just trying to avoid posters recommending full size floor standing cookers and the like, as I only want something I can stand on the work top. I don't plan to cook turkeys.

The only place I found that sold convection type microwave ovens was Robinsons, they had large selection to choose from. Home Pro stocks a couple of lower end models. Tesco's & Big C stocked only the standard type. There is also a large electronic appliance store (Nano Square) between the fountain circle and clock circle that's worth checking out.
