I watch loads of soaps, Imperial Leather being the absolute peak of them. Shout out to Pears transparent soap and Dove pink beauty bar...

Like now for a prime example, there are Game of Thrones snippets doing the rounds. I love that show. Why on earth would I want it spoiled before I see it? I've been living for season 8. Even the trailers take away from viewing the episode to some degree, because I can't help myself from letting my mind run wild with theories, so I'm then expecting something to happen that I've conjured up, which distracts from just watching the show. I really don't get it. And shows that end each episode with "Next time on..." clips. Has me frantically grabbing the remote to stop it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or even worse than that, when the absolute spunktrumpet who introduces your show as it's about to start "And now it's time for X, where Y goes on a journey to find Z". Are you **** kidding me? There should be a broadcasting standards trebuchet for punishment for people who do that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter's best mate is a junior doctor who currently works in pediatric A&E, and she says THE single most common case she deals with is kids who've shoved things (including Lego) up their bum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted March 5, 2019 Moderator Share Posted March 5, 2019 I don’t get why anyone would think this was an acceptable price for a fugly one seat sofa that doesn’t look remotely comfortable £2300 if you can’t read the price tag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted March 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) 44 minutes ago, StefanAVFC said: Light switches on the outside of the room Do you mean bathrooms in particular? The “main” light is operated by a light switch outside the bathroom in my house (I have an additional shaver light thing above my mirror which is switched on by a little pull chord). Switches located outside a bathroom are to do with reducing the risk of wet fingers touching the switch. Whether that extra second or two helps dry the hands to significantly reduce the chance of electrocution is debatable. But ultimately it’s a safety thing. You could have a chord light switch set up inside instead. Edited March 7, 2019 by Shropshire Lad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want someone turning the light off when I'm in there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
