Pimp my bathroom

[Oscar's dad]

"Self filling"?  Does that just mean that Mrs OD runs the bath for you?

Gracious me no!  One presses a button and water flows for a predetermined period of time thus filling the bath!  You can also set the temperature.   Clever stuffs!

[Mrs Pingu]

Truly, welcome to the future....

His'n'Hers pole dancing in the shower?

[Mrs Pingu]

And this morning, having just started climbing the first sweaty hill of the day I get a phone call.

Hello, it's the John Lewis fitter here, I'm standing outside your door waiting to fit your flooring

That's nice for you, however I'm in France and there isn't a bathroom for you to fit it into currently...
That was the 29th of *September* I booked you silly billies.

I'll post another when I've finished decorating and the vinyl flooring is laid

You can't leave that bog roll flapping in the wind like that.

[chrisbainbridge]

But do you not worry in hotels about the toilet roll when it is stuffed into the roll or folded about who has been handling it and where their hands were just beforehand?

[Jurek]

I always unroll the first linear foot and discard it.

[Kim]

I tend to assume toilet roll (and toilet roll dispensers, flush buttons, sanitary bins, cubicle locks, etc) has been handled by someone with their hands covered in shit, tbh.  Can't really go wrong from there.

ETA: Crosspost with Jurek.

[Jurek]

I've been present on too many occasions in one of the traps at work, when someone has availed themselves of the facilities, and left without washing their hands.

Any loo roll left on the roll after I've finished with it, is used for manual contact with any of the items Kim has listed above.

[Aunt Maud]

Errr, no, not really. After spending 9 months travelling from Gulmarg to Gangtok via Kala Patthar and wiping my arse with my left hand and eating with my right, I don't worry about such stuff.

I was thinking more about aesthetics and all that.

I always discard the first few sheets, it's a well known fact that both VD and babies come from unsanitary lavatorial experiences.

I honestly don't understand how people can use the toilet – especially when they've opened the bomb bay doors and dropped the big one – and just walk out, their hands unsullied by even a basic splash of water. I mean, is it that much effort? Evidently.

[Mrs Pingu]

But there's no paper dangling. I'm not folding it in a corner and turning it round to face the wall is just wrong, as any right thinking person knows

I don't know about you, but I normally manage not to crap on my hands.

[ian]

Normally? You make it sound like you have special days.

I try not to, but there's proximity involved, not the mention the old finger slipped, toilet paper ripped, and now my finger's covered in rhyme beloved of every school boy. Plus I'm sure some of the people I see scuttling out of the toilet probably do crap on their hands. It's like what happens in every single Wetherspoons' bog, the chap who evidently must stand on the seat to drop a monster airburst crap that goes everywhere. The cubical that you walk into and then back out of, wishing you had access to a full ABC decontamination suite. I expect it's a bit much to ask that he wash his hands before returning to the kitchen.

One word. Shattaf.

How do you do that without touching them?

[Mrs Pingu]

OK folks, we've done all the disgusting already here:

These are important matters of state. Plus, we're boys. Mostly. And my wife wouldn't let me have the Japanese robo-toilet which, to this day, disappoints and concerns me.

You mean you don't have more than one lavatory in that baronial palace of yours?

[ian]

We do have two water closets though neither receptacle is robotic as my wife doesn't trust them despite the fact I have assured her that toilets probably aren't going to be SkyNet's first target come Judgement Day.

[Mrs Pingu]

Mostly this weekend, I have been painting.
It's all now beautiful brilliant white. I'm hoping the decorating is now finished just awaiting the flooring.

But... I have a funny feeling that when I offer up the new radiator to the room (it's a bit unwieldy to be doing so myself) that I'm going to find out that it is not brilliant white, but rather some shade of not-quite-white.
If I have to paint the radiator as well I shall be this: disgruntled.

[chrisbainbridge]

Paint can apparently reduce thermal conductivity, so i have been told and reduce effciency.
