In those days soap didn't dissolve as easily as today's soap.
Water isn't supposed to have a flavour.

I give things away using freecycle or gumtree. There's always someone starting out or divorced etc that can make use of something.

Did you ever have a "copper"?
I had one of those. Bought in 1978 and only thrown away around 2015 as it had a slight leak - it still stopped when it boiled. I'm pretty sure it didn't eject the plug if it overheated - not that I was ever so foolish as to turn it on with no water in it - I think it just cut out and cut in again when it had cooled down.
I think it's the one where the earth connection was the outside of the socket that ejected the plug if it overheated.
Why do you say "foolish" instead of "forgetful"?
To be persistently forgetful is foolish, unless you have dementia.
No, it's just human. Only computers never forget.
Is this thread still chugging on? The fact is that in my view, very hard water should be somehow stopped, however they do it as it damages stuff connected to it over time. Brian
