Why don't we put the lights on ????
« on: February 07, 2009, 09:07:55 AM »
When we go to the toilet in the middle of the night.....even when you know you're not going to disturb anyone  noooo:

I did this last night and then went into the bathroom , knocked against a storage unit and a mahoooosive tub of shampoo feel on my left foot. I am now crippled, unable to walk - oh alright I may have a bruise appearing but why doesn't logic work in the dark  rubschin:

Quite.
If I'd done that 9 years ago, I wouldn't have scar on me 'ed, and I wouldn't have woken everyone up at 2:30am, including the next door neighbours, and I wouldn't have smashed the newly erected cupboard half way down the stairs, and been reminded of it all on a fairly regular basis ever since like. ::)
Being pissed out of me mind didn't help like, but lights on may have helped.

I went out to an unfamiliar restaurant last night...

Followed the signs to the toilet up a dark stairway, rubbing the walls trying to find the lights... I never did.  noooo:

They'll clean it up today prolly...  whistle:

It's the shock of the light  8)   I've a dimmer switch in the bathroom and click it on at lowest glimmer for that middle of the night moment.

Dimmer switches  rubschin: Now there's a thing. This one was fitted at the wishes of an ex who was rather keen on moody bath time experiences  eyes: Also fitted was a speaker connected to the CD player in the living room and an abundance of candles  ::)

Steady lad ~ you are almost talking sense there ~ and that would never do. Think of our reputation.

As long as it's only almost then ...  whistle:

Speaking of dimmer switches, as you do, I once had an energy efficiency expert (prat!) come and assess my place. God knows why... it was a freebie when switching suppliers I think.
He prattled on about the dimmer switch in the bathroom not saving me any money  ::)  In spite of telling him that wasn't actually the point he was insistent on sucking his teeth and shaking his head. A 5* prat.
