    B I G kettles

    our kettle at work has lasted 2 years...but its dead

    It was a good, and trusted friend but it leaks like a sieve now.

    Off to kettle heaven.

    I was off work yesterday, and came to work to see THE BIGGEST KETTLE ON EARTH !!!

    nobody say TTIUWP cos I aint got a digi camera to TAKE any piccies...

    but its a funny day today.

    Every single person who walks into the tea room today, has excalimed "my god, thats a HUGE" at the top of there voice.

    I have been in fits all morning.

    One of the mechanics has just stated that the Womens Institute must be missing it by now !

    I dont know why this is so damn funny but it is!

    Oh here's another one.....wait wait....

    There ya go!

    *sharp intake of breath from kitchen area*

    "How the HELL am I gonna pick THAT up if its full?"


    this is so funny

    You had a work kettle last two years?

    We have drink machines where I am now, but at my old office we were lucky to have a kettle last more than three or four months. I think one made it to six months before it blew up. Literally.

    They took away our last coffee machine because everyone knew the codes for free coffee and tea. We now have 4 kettles.

    Was funny when the dude came to refill it and only got £1.20 outta the machine!

    All the drinks where I work are free.

    It's interesting that you mention 'secret' codes for these things though - I'm still convinced that our drinks machines must have a secret code for Stella and Guiness.... They just have to!
