ive done it for as long as i can remember, both of my brothers and me old man do it
When i was at work before,a customer gave me and my boss a cuppa,i usually (when outside) flick the last bit of the drink out the cup while holding the handle.Anyway i did this and cup went flying and i was left red faced apologising to the customer while still having the handle in my hand lol lol

grrr just buy a bloody kettle! cant bodge when it comes to tea!
AHH but if the kettle has lasted that long its worth it, No point in skimping on a 99p special kettle to have it break in 5days
grrr just buy a bloody kettle! cant bodge when it comes to tea!
Or just keep on top of descaling your kettle or even just rinsing it out every so often, cant bodge when it comes to making tea lol
