Re: How much water in your kettle

I've just brewed the biggest mug of coffee you have ever seen so my kettle is now empty.

What's next? Have you got any bread in your toaster?

My kettle steams the window up and sometimes I draw faces on it.

Re: How much water in your kettle

I pour a jug of water into my kettle. I use a flask as I am disabled so the jug is exactly the amount for the flask. This allows me to have coffee/tea whenever I want, wherever I am in the house as I use a lovely trolley with everything on it lolol. A girl has to have her comforts 😀 However, I really don't like it when people visit and leave me a full kettle as it is really too heavy when full for me to handle properly. So - I try and be diplomatic and explain, which sometimes works. I think people think they are being helpful when really they are not lol.
