About this deal

Put The Kettle On (foaled 10 March 2014) is an Irish racehorse who competes in National Hunt racing. She won two minor races over hurdles but made dramatic improvement when campaigned in steeplechases. In the 2019/2020 National Hunt season she won six races including the November Novices' Chase and the Arkle Challenge Trophy. In the following season she won the Shloer Chase and the Champion Chase.

The metal used for our signs is aluminium, to last and not to rust, so suitable for indoor, bathrooms, kitchens or outdoors. Here, auto-translation won't help. This is something that I think only people steeped in Latin culture would know.Our Signs are either designed by our in house designers, enhanced old advertising poster or an enhanced original signs The similar-appearing phrase "I'll boil the kettle" means "I will make some boiled water", with no implied promise to take that task any further. But in England at least, "I'll put the kettle on" translates to "Unless you decline, I commit to making us some warm beverages, and to spending at least enough time with you for us to finish the drinks. There may be Hobnobs, and dunking is encouraged." It is both a warm welcome and an invitation to stay awhile. A passive-affectionate version of "come on in, grab a cold one".

The phrase "put the kettle on" is an English Idiom, celebrated in verse (eg "Polly put the kettle on...") for at least a couple of hundred years. It carries a HUGE weight of subtext in some areas of England, which I only really appreciated after moving to Texas, where it's taken literally.

" 'Mad' mare Put The Kettle On proves a champion at Cheltenham Festival". The Guardian. This is covered a little under How do I welcome someone in Latin? -- the answer by Joonas Ilmaverta is rather excellent, but "I'll put the kettle on" comes after that initial welcoming phrase, and fulfills the "making-at-home, settling-in" part of the conversation.

My sister recently pondered what our family motto would be, if we had one. I suggested "I'll put the kettle on." (We know the Morgan family has several mottoes commonly ascribed to it, but I'm ignoring that for the sake of this question!) Disclaimer: I know no Latin, and am asking from a position of ignorance; please feel free to correct any assumptions you spot!] As a non-grammatical idiom, I suspect it is not easily auto-translated. Google Translate suggests "Lebetem pone", which sounds great in my head, but feels like it must be a literal translation into a gibberish sentence fragment, making little sense in Latin: Put the cauldron? Stuff the pot? Family mottoes often use dog Latin, so I could easily just go with something like "Lebetem coques" (schoolboy smirk) or "Semper ferventi ab ollae" or "poppus kettleus onnus" and call it done. But now I've started digging, I can't help but wonder how the same greeting would have been given in Latin... or would be given today, in those communities which still use it. I’m not sure if it’s the repetition of this rhyme, or that it’s just plain fun to say, but both of my little girls squealed in delight when I told them that we were learning Polly Put the Kettle On this week!Put The Kettle On is a place to explore new and varying hot drinks, from flowering teas andexotic coffees to chai lattes and other cultural cuppa’s, whilst encouraging and building a friendly environment of support, chatter andfun. Put The Kettle On began her next campaign in the Shloer Chase over two miles on soft ground at Cheltenham on 15 November in which she was ridden by Coleman and started the 7/4 second favourite behind the multiple Grade 1 winner Defi du Seuil in a four-runner field. She was in contention throughout the race, recovered a mistake at the third last, and overtook the front-running Duc Des Genievres in the closing stages to win by one and a quarter lengths. [16] After the race Coleman said "She has got a massive heart as she hated the ground. She was never happy the whole way. It was a testament to her ability and her attitude as it was a hard race for her. Since November last year, she has only run once, so she might be a touch rusty. When I got on top, I won well". [17] In the Grade 1 Paddy's Reward Club Chase at Leopardstown Racecourse on 27 December the mare was ridden by Sean Flanagan and finished third behind Chacun Pour Soi and Notebook, beaten more than eight lengths by the winner. This Polly Put the Kettle On is such a fun set. My 4 year old can’t get enough of the two girls in this rhyme – Polly and Sukey.

A great song to help develop numeracy and counting skills is the Little Piggy nursery rhyme. Children can sit together in circle time and use their fingers to count the amount of piggies that disappear! It is a good rhyme for promoting fine motor skills and using controlled finger movements. Why are nursery rhymes called nursery rhymes? Translating "boil the kettle" might be easier, but it's another idiom (kettles don't boil, the water in them does), but it's the kind of synecdoche that could be near-universal. But I'm not sure Latin has a term specifically for boiling water, as opposed to cooking something. Again, Google translate for "boil water" suggests "Aquam coquite," but translates coquite to "cook". And "boil the kettle" to "coques lebetem"... cook the pot? Can that be right?The Polly Put The Kettle On nursery rhyme is one of the most well-known amongst baby and toddler groups. It will therefore be a lovely addition to a nursery or pre-school, as many will know how it goes from when they were tiny tots. When we say the rhyme, we each have a sequencing card. When the rhyme gets to the portion containing our card, we wave our cards in the air. We also plan to explore new and interesting cafes and bakeries around Birmingham and carry out various excursions regularly and carry out other interesting events like Paint-A-Pot, Cat Cafe Visits, Afternoon teaor other charity fundraisers. The missing part of the sentence is ambiguous. Put it on the stove? Put it "on the boil" (another idiom)? Turn the power on? Each of these, I imagine, would be translated differently, and I suspect the meaning has drifted through the three over time.
