If it looks that cute,  I'm not sure I'd worry about the brand Frozzie... I might even need one too :D
But I have heard of it before,  just can't remember where or what. Sorry!

Im not normally fixated on brands but these days with so much @$/@# made in china etc i prefer to know what im buying.. Going for generally more expensive but sound brands who have a lifetime reputation of quality.. Saying that its just a kettle and a stove top one so how wrong can you go lol

Estéele cookware is fine Kim. Their saucepans last well as Mum had a set for years and years. In fact they outlasted her.

CC I'm not sure what the maximum weight is for the bucket. I can't see it anywhere.

DJ this is all so very exciting. I'd be all for camping in there overnight.

Gretchen, give him a chance, stay still for  minutes.

DJ, you sound so much more happier, hope the move goes well.

You won't have to replace that one Frozzie. I have a friend with a glass one and it is disgustingly discoloured and  is totally brown inside now. She never cleans it and makes you think just  what is in the water that stains it.

DJ this is all very exciting. Now mind you don't get so busy when you move in that you can't keep us up,with the Excitement. Some  of our lives are very dull you know. I think you should start a new thread. Maybe DJ's Wonderful Adventure?

It is 19.3 degrees in my bedroom in Cairns but the sun is up  so as soon as it is 20 I will leap out of bed!

That is hot Gert.... Today in mid summer we got to 16'.
Had to wear a fleece on my evening walk.

And owing to current thermal imbalances am on top of the covers and it is 12' outside.

I know all about thermal imbalances! Drives ya nuts.

  It has now gone up to 19.4 so I have my arms out of the covers and my iPad on my knee.

It's 8 degrees outside now (10am) with an expected high of 11 today.  Really LOVE my heatpump - we have a ducted system to working at home today to stay warm.

My shopping for the last few days has been cookie cutters for baking with the kids (NinjaBread Men for DS, and heart/star/flower set for DD). 
And just ordering a flash for our new DSLR camera - having lots of fun with it, but a LOT to learn!
