I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO DESIGN MY OWN HOUSE,
I HAVE THE IDEA IN MY HEAD BUT AFTER TODAY AND THE FUDGING
WATER PILLS I HAVE REDESIGNED IT,
EVERY ROOM HAS A LOO,IT HAS BEEN ONE OF THOSE DAYS WHERE IT
TAKES ME HALF AN HOUR TO WALK FOUR FOOT TO LOO THEN SAME BACK,
AND SO FAR THAT'S EVERY HOUR THROUGH THE DAY,AND I'M RIGHT PEED OFF WITH IT ALL,
SO I WILL HAVE A LOUNGE WITH A LOO IN THE MIDDLE,
KITCHEN WITH ONE IN THE CORNER,
DINING ROOM WITH ONE SLID UNDER THE TABLE,
BEDROOM BY THE DOOR (CANT GET UP STAIRS ANYWAY)
BATHROOM ERRRR NO NEED FOR LOO GOT ENOUGH EVERYWHERE
ELSE ,
SO IF YOUR IN THE ROOM AT THE WRONG TIME I YELL OUT OUT OUT,
JUST RUN LIKE HELL

Great idea, but what if the visitors are like you, very slow to walk?

Perhaps have a button to press to instantly bring down something to surround you with privacy.

Maybe one of Maxwell's and the Chief's 'Cones of Silence' with pretty curtains might be the idea? Thought - you could double up and phone a friend.

Many peoples ancestors had the right idea, lovely decorated screen behind which was an ornately decorated mahogany cupboard - with a potty inside :-S

I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

When was it decided to promote the bathroom from a room that wasn’t always necessarily indoors into what might well be described as a new private living room at the heart of every house?
