To have a kettle in the bedroom?

I have, as of today, fulfilled my lifelong dream… I have a kettle in my bedroom! It has always been a dream of mine to purchase a teasmaid but they are hard to find and expensive. So I’ve bought a bright pink kettle, Lakeland milk sachets, coffee sachets, tea bags and now all I need is some biscuits 🍪

I am so excited to wake up tomorrow morning 🤣 I am also recently separated and doing whatever I damn well please 🤣 Life has been shite lately so I am seeking out a little joy where I can find it 💕

Have I finally lost the plot or am I a genius?! 🤣

We used to have a teasmaid in the 1980s. I loved it. You've made me want one again, but I don't really need one as DH always makes me tea in the morning. Enjoy your kettle!

YANBU re the kettle but YABVU re those horrid little UHT sachets.

As soon as I read the topic I thought Teasmaid :) I'm forever going down into kitchen and bringing a cuppa up but I like the thought of it (kettle in room). Will it not be faff getting the water up there though and restocking of biscuits?

Sounds lovely op. Enjoy your first bedroom brew. I only hope it’s Yorkshire tea?

Enjoy it, OP! My grandparents had separate bedrooms, and my grandmother made the most of it, with a brew before bed, and one for when she got up in the morning!
