Good idea for a Christmas gift to whoever makes the rules. Gift them a pair of new garden chair, acquire a better spot to sit, and hopefully they’ll get the message.

Whatsapp doesn’t use a lot of battery at all for me.

Would an electric kettle help? You can boil water with it, and then pour that water over ramen noodles, seasonings like miso paste/ chili flakes/ sesame oil, and chopped veggies. Makes a decent noodle soup, and is less hassle than heating it all up on the stove.

Or a slow cooker/ pressure cooker, where you just put all the ingredients in and it cooks it into a stew, soup or sauce.
