Experts are warning people not to boil their underwear in hotel kettles in case it spreads potentially deadly toxins. It's a revelation that’s bound to have you regretting every cup of tea you’ve ever had in a hotel room; the act of underwear-boiling is apparently a practice that exists. Highlighted by Gizmido, who spotted someone asking on Twitter, “Real question: does anyone I know clean their underwear in a kettle while travelling?” evidence of people using hotel kettles to boil their unmentionables has, worryingly, also been spotted on Chinese microblogging site Weibo. www.independent.co.uk/life-style/underwear-boil-hotel-kettles-spread-bacteria-health-risk-heather-hendrickson-hostels-a7909941.html |

I once witnessed an incident between a hotel kettle and Private Frank Pike (of Dad's Army fame) but sworn to secrecy, can't mumble a word of it old chap.
Smokes was there, so if you buy him a ladies cocktail he might spill the beans.

Innocent me, I thought it was a warning not to boil your undies in a hotel kettle in order not to get nasty germs in your undies. Mind you if first someone boiled water and put in tea leaves maybe that might actually work as disinfectant. Of course, your undies would probably also get an interesting 'rainbow like' colouring scheme. Might impress your better or temporary half  |

You know that feeling where the hotel bfast is effin awful and the night before is long past?
You sit there with acidic coffee and shit toast and ponder the meaning of life....
Then your bfast companion grins and mentions the Heineken tap and you realise its game on again.
Tony do you know what I mean?

The only reason that the coffee was ordered was to test the hip flask's ability to turn water into wine (more commonly known as 'coffee into Irish coffee'). Got to love these expensive 2 star hotels that are full of Chinese tour groups. |
