The most useless kettle ever

This is the kettle my little niece bought me a few years ago and I was chuffed to bits to get it and the accompanying toaster. Not because they were pink and "groovy" but because they came from her. She thought her aunty would like them as much as she did.

I call it the most useless kettle ever because of the following:

1. It spills most of the water in it whenever you pour. I have to pour over the sink or the cooker and all around are swimming in boiling water.

2. You have to open the lid to fill it - it doesn't like attempts at trying to fill it via the spout.

3. You can't tell how much is in it until you open it - the pink plastic spout is meant to be transparent enough for you to be able to tell, but it's not.

The toaster was quite funny as it was supposed to toast a heart shape into the bread but all it did was leave the rest of the bread barely toasted and the supposed heart shape slightly overdone.

I'm rattling on about this kettle now as I had to take a kettle over to my other half's place in Switzerland as he didn't have one and they cost an arm and a leg where he lives. We both quickly discovered why I hadn't used it in years.
