Some people whistle past the graveyard, and some people can't whistle, so ...

Ah, so it's not a pawn in the political system.
replyFor a long time I thought it was a Dalek from Dr Who, can't be right all the time I suppose:)

So, not a path to a graveyard.
Hey, Yorkshire Man, does this face the correct way?

Nope TNG - a right-handed person needs to pick it up in their right hand - with the spout facing left.
This kettle is ready to be picked up by a wrong-handed person.
By the way - I read yesterday that some people over there actually use a microwave to boil the water rather than a kettle, is this true?

I don't own a microwave and haven't for over 20 years. But, there are plenty of people who boil water in one, I suppose. None related to me, however.
replyI am beginning to think this was a set up by mindscrub to spark this debate.
replyRickshaw, you don't know the Warwick manoeuvre? Put your right hand, palm up, through the space under the handle. Grasp the handle. Lift the kettle, while bending the elbow and rotating it counterclockwise, and cocking your wrist downward. You now have the kettle in hand, with the spout facing left, as you wanted.
replyYes, true. I've got enough clutter in my kitchen that I don't need a large item that has a single use. Especially when that single function can be performed in other ways. (If you object to the microwave, there are always pots.)

Don't you know the kitchen was invented to store gadgets? :D

Oh, I do. But there comes a time when the only way to add a gadget is to dump a gadget. I've lusted after a stand mixer for as long as I can remember, but still haven't figured out what I can toss to make room.

I am sending my stand mixer to my daughter. With just two of us, we don't use it any more. Sure miss making cheesecake and hummingbird cake with the grandson.
replyOnce again, while Piltshaw's time zone is asleep, I will answer: in the correct preparation of tea, the water is poured into the pot from the starboard side, and the pot is placed on the burner with the handle parallel to the great circle that intersects Jorhat and Manchester. The reasons for these details are the same as for why one does not drink tea with cream: because that's the proper way. No argument is brooked.

So, you can't use that kettle that have the handle fix?

I was talking about the purists' correct preparation of tea. In my preparation of tea, anything goes; any kettle, or any pot, with any kind of handle, at any angle.

Thank you for interrupting my sleep scallion.
I would however like to add my two penn'orth:
Firstly I would question if it's possible to place a straight handle parallel to a circle?
More importantly, Manchester is not in Yorkshire (I can't bring myself to type the name of the county where it is) - you must mean Jorhat and Leeds?

Yes, mathematically it's possible. You can place the straight line parallel to the circle's plane.
