chrishall   10 #14 Posted December 5, 2012 What are you on about "used to". They are widely used by campers today and are still sold in fashionable kitchen shops as well as bargain stores. I take it you don't get out much..   Yeah but the whistles are wimpy compred to the old ones which used to take a macho stance and make their presence known in no uncertain manner.  You dint dare mess wi 'em.

jomarch   12 #18 Posted December 9, 2012 I'm looking for one for my induction hob- we have a steel kettle at the mo but it doesn't whistle- so we have to stand over it as the hob is so fast when the kettle boils it spills boiling water everywhere! If anyone knows a good stockist let me know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
