ReadyWhenUR Kettle

Now this is my kind of a pointless gadget. A kettle that you can switch on by texting it "switch on" from your mobile phone. Completely pointless, and I want one.

This kettle was inspired by Wallace and Gromit, and developed by Orange and PG Tips. It would go nicely with my red-nosed-when-hot Gromit mugs.

In the article they say, "they make tea, ok, Yanks?" Are they talking about us? I can never tell. Here in Texas we call people from New York yanks, but I don't think people mean it very kindly. Who is a yank?

To us Limeys, all Americans are Yanks. There's no ill feeling behind it, it's just a nickname. Did you know the French call us ros beef for some reason?
