We've got some cups of bovril from the pound shop (yes jim they cost a pound), just saving up for an inverter or a 12V kettle now.

Aldi had some power convertors amongst their car stuff the other month, might still have some because they didn't look to be selling at all..

If your after an inverter get a large wattage one...the ones from aldi would probably act as a george foreman grill if you plugged a kettle in...and only the once at that. The 12v kettle I bought, when plugged in at Newcastle just about has the water to the boil by Peterborough, and thats always assuming it hasn't fallen over.

I have a 24v to 12v cig lighter converter if anyone needs one. Lord knows why I bought it but will never use it. Also I have a lot of 12v bulkhead lights and some 6 way prewired fuse boxes for anyone who wants to wire their new toys in. All free to a good home.

Cheers
