Will check it out Mam.
It’s probably been done before but that would be a good thread, covers better than the original.
For me it’s Placebo's Running up that Hill, closely followed by Roxy Music's Jealous Guy and Sinead O'Connor's Nothing Compares 2U...

The latter two for sure. But as much I love Placebos version of Running up that hill, I adore Kate Bush's voice so much that the original cannot be topped. They did come close though. Others who did amazing jobs with covers, are Jeff Buckleys "hallelujah", Johnny Cash "Hurt" and possibly controversially I really rate Antony and the Johnsons version of "crazy in love"

Up in the big smoke for three nights. Work related. I'd rather not be but sure has to be done. I'm staying away from the kettle...

Oooh, I'm jelly! That's an impressive haul, you'll need a few stiff drinks to recover.


And the kettles?

The hotel kettle is a bit like Aladdin's lamp apparently. Switch them on and a banshee eminates from the steam. That's what I heard anyways....

I promise I am trying to be as delicate as I can here but....
While it's not normal for people staying in Irish hotels and presumably hotels all over the world to put bodily fluids in the kettles it is also not abnormal. If you're wondering which bodily fluid don't bother, it's any and all of them

Years before I read the thread here a bunch of us used to go to our local pub every Friday and one of our friends would join us later after her shift cleaning hotels and it wasn't uncommon for her to tell us of some disgusting stuff not just involving kettles. One particular story which I will not tell here is to this day one of the most revolting things I have ever heard of, it was so revolting to me that I put down the pint I was drinking and didn't touch another drop for the rest of the night because my stomach turned that much hearing the story.


We share this world with some absolute creeps! And NEVER drink anything that has been in a kettle in a hotel room. N E V E R !!!

You have to tell us now, Guy! What was the disgusting story?

I swear I never did anything with one except make tea or coffee.
But I always fill and boil and empty them before I then use it for either.

Haha! No 0lddog, I don't think I have any poems in me at the moment but if I did I wouldn't use this topic for one.

I'm just thinking I had tea every morning from my hotel room last week and my faithfully packed Barry's tea bags.

Fingers in ears...la la la la la... cant hear you.

Without being too graphic, every single bodily function has been found in hotel kettles,I cannot unread what I read.Think about it lads and think about what people can be capable of,I also wouldn't dream of going barefoot on a hotel room carpet, I wouldn't use the bath unless I brought some kind of disinfectant spray...before anyone starts I'm not at all OCD or anything, my own house is testament to that but I know my house can be untidy but not dirty dirt.I always have my sleeve over my hand when using doors in toilets etc,I'm weird about where I'll eat out in restaurants and what I'll actually eat especially sandwiches. I really have a very weak stomach and even thinking about stuff makes me sick.

I'm not weird honestly ☺️

Another thing I just remembered..never leave your toothbrush uncovered in a bathroom even in your own bathroom.

Imagine coming home from a weekend in a hotel and giving birth to a kettle 9 months later .😂

Gives a whole new meaning to the term "small appliance" :eek:

I would have thought that nothing but the hardiest extremophiles could survive boiling water, but then again, it's not a pleasant thought either way.

Anyway, desk side with some nice relaxing tunes. Trying to get ready for Monday...

Duvet you're so funny! Pissing myself here!


I live by myself and I don't even keep my own toothbrush in the bathroom. I have it in a cover in a different room. I am very finicky about germs though.



I really didn't envisage this whole conversation when I logged into Boards this evening.

Guy, its turned into a rerun of a chapter of Bill Bryson's 'At Home'

I'm wondering if Smurf will take fright when he see this.

Should we ask Tedo & Sephers to redact this evening ?

Well, I slept in the strange mattress, drank the tea (Barry's of course) 4 ate the sambos (too many), left my toothbrush unattended......and I'm still here large as life to tell the tale.

Clearly, I have a cast iron constitution.

I might say I have the scutters after the kettle to avoid going back to work tomorrow.
