LOL :-)

The reason for that macro is that power to the kettle is cut at 10pm so I
can prime the kettle to boil automagically at 05:40 the next morning. That
macro provided a way of turning the module off again if we use the kettle
after 10pm.

Lets see what interesting macros you come up with :-)

Anyway, one of the meta tags on the webpages says....

This website is dedicated to the pursuit of the "Couch Potato"
lifestyle.
Information contained here will enable you to operate household devices by
remote control or computer whilst you enjoy the latest movies in your own
Home Cinema. There are projects for the technically minded to construct
their own Home Automation system.

I just had a little look at Keith's site (the Homevision part) and he
has got to get the UKHA Couch potato award:

"L14 Macro Kettle Control IR remote control of Electric Kettle"

Sorry Keith, but it made me laugh. The only question that remains is
how does the hot drink get to you in the livingroom from the
kitchen.... assuming the kettle isn't built in to your LazyBoy of
course. ;)
