A frock for Mrs Mottie. The outfit buying in prep for the cruise has started. More to come - formal night clothes, informal night clothes, shoes and handbags no doubt. :rolleyes:

Oh, and a new kettle. The old one was "Too noisy".

We get a coffee machine in our suites. Oh and don't forget Mrs Mottie too when shopping for handbags, don't try out doing her and getting a better one for yourself.

So do we. The kettle is for our house though, not for the cruise! We also get an 'exclusive' breakfast venue for suite passengers in one of the speciality dining venues. We were on this ship in 2011 with 4 of our friends, two of them booked last minute and got a suite for exactly the same price as we paid for our extended balcony cabins, the jammy barstewards, but they weren’t breakfast people so us and the other couple took turns at using their cabin card to have breakfast in the exclusive restaurant. It was very nice.
 
So today I found a Lambretta shop. I love tight fitting polo shirts and Lambretta are really good quality ones. Went in and saw what I liked. Wasn’t sure on my size as I am built like a truck with arms that require odd sizes. No changing rooms to try the sizes so I asked the girls if they wouldn’t mind me stripping off in the shop to try them. I stripped off my polo shirt I was wearing and they were in absolute awe of my muscles. I could see them looking at each other and raising their eye brows. Anyways got the perfect fitting one. I just thought unless you had my body how would you try a size on in the shop?
 
Just out of interest for you all, I bought the black one in the window with the chequered collar, I looked fantastic
 
Another one for the collection! I think you’re suffering with that new strain of carowner virus that’s doing the rounds. You’ll be putting an extension on the garage soon.

Our kettles have been Which? Best Buys for years.

IDK why I bother. Every single one has ended up either noisy or, more commonly, taking absolutely ages to switch off.

Thus the eco kettle which only takes a tiny amount of electricity to boil a cupful, ends up using a load more because the bloody thing takes eons to switch off.
 
We’ve been through quite a few kettles, from very expensive ones to cheapos. The only ones that seem to last for any decent period of time are Kenwood ones. They’re nothing fancy, but do the job and will last 5 or more years.

I had a kenwood hifi back in the day with a 3 disc CD changer…and a kenwood car stereo where the front came off to prevent theft :D
