Veteran quarterback Chad Kelly to miss another start for the Toronto Argonauts
TORONTO – Chad Kelly's season debut with the Toronto Argonauts will have to wait another week. Toronto (1-4) listed the veteran quarterback as out for its game Thursday night in Montreal versus the Alouettes (3-2). That means Nick Arbuckle will make a sixth straight start for the Argos. Kelly, the CFL's 2023 outstanding player, hasn't played this season as he continues to recover from a serious leg injury suffered in last year's East Division final versus Montreal. Arbuckle earned the Grey Cup start for the Argos and was named the game's MVP after passing for 252 yards and two TDs in their 41-24 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Both Toronto and Montreal will come off bye weeks. Also out for the Argos will be tackle Ryan Hunter (shoulder), linebacker Jack Cassar (adductor) and running back Miyan Williams (head). But running back Deonta McMahon (ankle), linebacker Wynton McManis (knee) and defensive lineman Derek Parish (ankle) will all be available for Toronto. Quarterback Davis Alexander will be available for Montreal after missing two starts with a hamstring injury. He's 7-0 as a CFL starter and closing in on Danny McManus's league record of eight straight wins to begin a career in Canada. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Also available for the Alouettes will be offensive linemen Nick Callender (foot) and Cyrille Hogan-Saindon (knee) and receiver Austin Mack (hamstring).

Self-inflating airbed that's 'far more comfortable' than rivals gets 30% Amazon cut
"It's far more comfortable than your standard airbed and compact enough when deflated to slot in to most storage spaces." Blow-up beds are often more hassle than they're worth- we've all woken up to the cold hard ground beneath us when camping or staying at a friend's due to a completely deflated mattress. And punctures are all too common in most blow-up beds, even if they've been recently purchased. But one anti-puncture airbed promises a hotel-rated sleep no matter where you are. Usually retailing at a steep £80.99, the iDOO Single Airbed is currently on a 30 per cent discount on Amazon, down from £80.99 to £56.99. Complete with an electric built-in pump, the full-size single bed promises to self-inflate and deflate in just three minutes at the push of a button. The camping bed also comes in a range of other sizes and colours, including a double/king size bed for just £64.99. The discounted bed is made from skin-friendly, multi-layer, puncture-resistant PVC to prevent air leakage and instability, guaranteeing the user that they won't wake up to the hard floor on their back after suffering a puncture. With 21 internal air coils to enhance durability and support, the bed is designed to stay flat and firm, and the mattress will not tilt or flip if the user sits on its edge or corner. iDOO Single Air Bed Product Description With inflated dimensions of 190 x 100 x 46cm and a weight capacity of 250kg, this mattress is large enough to sleep one person in luxury. Its anti-slip bottom also keeps the mattress stable and silent, protecting quality of sleep. Lightweight for portability and storage, the bed can be easily packed away into the travel bag for holidays or camping trips. Those browsing alternative camping beds may consider the Intex Queensize Inflatable Camping Airbed on Argos, which is currently on sale for £68 down from £85. This option may be more suited to those who are after a larger airbed. Shoppers on a stricter budget may opt for the Bestway Airbed Flocked Double Air mattress for just £16 on sale, also on Argos. But customers adore the discounted Amazon airbed, which has scored an impressive 4.1 star rating out of a possible five. One happy customer said: "This airbed is weirdly satisfying to inflate with the built in pump, makes life so much easier. It's far more comfortable than your standard airbed and compact enough when deflated to slot into most storage spaces. "Deflating is just as easy, gone are the days of rolling it up manually, the deflation mechanism works perfectly." Yet a less happy shopper wrote: "When first received, I fully inflated it and left it up for a couple of days without issues or loss of pressure. "A couple of months later, it was the second time getting it out and first time actually sleeping on it and it's steadily deflating. I took extra care to make sure it was packed away carefully and no opportunity to scratch/puncture it, but doesn't look like it's holding air well at all." However, a different five-star reviewer wrote: "These are excellent - really easy to inflate takes a few minutes. Stay inflated for days before needing a little top up. Are a great size (bought 2 and put them together makes a great size bed). "Good height off the floor and really comfortable. Going to be perfect as additional guest beds. Very well priced for the quality. Easy to store." The iDOO Single Airbed can be purchased on Amazon HERE. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'Bright and welcoming' Russell Hobbs kettle with 'smooth pour' slashed by 62% to £19
"It absolutely brightens up the whole kitchen and my mood in the morning!" A reliable kettle is a staple in any kitchen. But if you can find a stylish and colourful one, then that can brighten up the room and make your everyday brews a little more enjoyable. Shoppers after a sleek yet affordable kitchen upgrade can now grab a Russell Hobbs Electric Kettle for just £18.99 on Amazon. This must-have gadget is currently 62 per cent off, down from £49.99. This eye-catching model in Raspberry Pink has become a favourite for its design and performance. It's also available in other vibrant colours including Black, Lemon Yellow, Pistachio Green, and White. The 1.7-litre Russell Hobbs Electric Kettle is packed with user-friendly features. The push-to-open lid makes filling quick and easy, while the water window with gauge helps measure the exact amount needed for each brew. A perfect pour spout ensures water flows smoothly without spilling, and the illuminated power switch clearly shows when the kettle is on. Other practical features include a 360-degree base with built-in cord storage and a removable, washable filter that helps reduce impurities in each cup. Constructed with textured detailing and chrome accents, the kettle doesn't just serve function, it adds colour and personality to any kitchen setup. For alternatives, the Breville VKT223 Bold Kettle in Cream and Silver offers similar capacity at £30 on Argos, with a 4.6-star rating from 1,298 reviews. The John Lewis JLK093 Kettle is also a worthy pick at £25, rated 4.1 stars by 732 users. But if it's the pop of colour and practical simplicity that the Russell Hobbs Electric Kettle offers, then this is a solid choice, especially at under £20. It boasts an impressive rating of 4.6 from over 900 reviews, and one happy customer said: 'It's a very stylish kettle and it is lightweight. It is easy to clean and easy to fill as the lid opens well. It boils quickly even when fully filled. Great kettle at an amazing price.' Another five-star reviewer waxed lyrical about the kettle's colour. They said: "The kettle takes a little over 3 minutes to come to a full boil. It feels hot to touch. "It's very light and the best feature about it is the colour. The brightest, most welcoming yellow. "It absolutely brightens up the whole kitchen and my mood in the morning! It pours smoothly into my cup and so far no leakage and good functionality.' However, not all reviews were positive and one user had concerns about the filter in hard water areas. They said:: 'I wouldn't advise buying this if you live in a hard water area: you'll be getting lots of limescale in your drinks. "The filter is very loosely fitting and doesn't cover the whole width of the spout, so lots of debris is free to come straight through into your drink. Terrible design, IMO.'

Someone else said: 'This kettle is on the slow-side to boil. The indicator for how much water you are putting in it is directly under the handle, which you are holding when filling it up. The indicator also starts at 3 cups, which is a recipe for over-filling.' But others were delighted with their purchase. One satisfied customer said: 'Insanely reliable, not very noisy and pretty big. Holds a lot of water and looks very cute since it's a really pretty cool toned pink.' Someone else added: "Brilliant kettle, brand new, quick delivery, reasonable price, just like other kettles boils fully & quickly, easy to use & fill up. Easy to empty. Good size. Lid easy to open." Get the Russell Hobbs Electric Kettle HERE while the 62 per cent discount lasts.
