Is it just Me?

To be fair I think the blue arrows imply "cold this way"...

 

Sorry if I missed the irony of the post!

I think I can work that one out!

The trouble is firstly how do you know which control turns the water on and off, and secondly which direction it will go, and thirdly what does the little button on top of the left control do?

All these decisions to make when all I want is a simple bath at the end of a hard day's work.

 I do not want to think about problems, just relax!

It is things like this that convert me from be just a grumpy old git, into a megagrumpanoid!

I am definitely mega grumpy.  I recently had to stay in a hotel whilst on a course.  Couldn't work out how the shower controls worked; couldn't work out how to stop the lights going off and couldn't work the usb charger that was linked to the TV.  I just need to stick to my axe and saw!

I think that you could use the axe to stop the lights being irritating and the saw might help with making the shower work, not sure about the usb charger though!

Better rename this thread "Grumpy Old Men"......what a life when hot taps bear a warning that the water may be HOT

We stopped in a motorway services the other day heading towards Manchester and the taps were not adjustable, they were the sensor type that start as soon as you put your hands under. The water was almost steam it was so hot  There was about 5 seconds warm up time so I had to go to 3 different taps to rinse my hands.

Wasn't life so much simpler years ago.  Everything now has to be hyped up; made more complicated.  Bloody hell....I've turned into my Dad!

No I never heard that word whilst growing up, I meant more like "Don't be hard on granpa  cos you'll be grumpy like him one day when all your joints hurt and you cannot do the things you used to do"
