Hello,

Have any of you found a Kettle that is easy to use? My wrists make holding one quite difficult without causing pain. I am looking for something that is not too heavy, has a lid opener for filling with a jug and not too hot to touch as I need to hold it with both hands (handle and front of kettle).

I am also looking for mugs or cups which have handles that will fit all of my fingers through. Something nice.

All suggestions gratefully accepted.

Thank you

Karen

I use a lightweight 'plastic' kettle Karen, I know it's not really plastic but that's what it feels like anyway! You can also get kettles which are mounted onto a stand so that the stand takes the strain and you just pour the kettle.
I also have plastic picnic cups and plates for 'those' days!

Tefal do one that you just press the top and it pours without you having to lift it, can't remember the name but I think Barbie mentioned it recently.

Jean, do you think Julie will cope eating with us on Saturday off "proper" plates?LOL
