but couldn't fill it directly from the tap as it wouldn't fit in the tiny sink under the tap so used a jug!

which one do you have and how long does it take to boil?

I'm always amazed when I see this type of post, 5 litres of pure water 99p. I dont trust the pipes in the 'van no matter how "clean". Enjoy the luxury of a "proper" kettle maybe 2 kw, just switch off something while its on!!

I have the same problem with getting the big kettle under the tap, so I use a jug as well. Saves moving the kettle round in a confined space, too.

I keep looking around for a smaller kettle, but the travel ones aren't cheap, so I haunt car boots in hope of getting another - last one cost me £2, a friend got one at the same boot for 20p and hers is still going strong. .

We didn't have much but a camping holiday was considered by me as a kid as the height of a cool holiday! When I started 'grown up' camping, the first thing I wanted was a whistling kettle...

The Lloytron travel kettle is great!  Very quick to boil, as quick if not quicker than our house kettle.  Bought a second one for the mother in law, but before we could give it to her she decides she's not camping any more! It'll come in handy one day.
