Be careful when using a toilet as "ladder"
The toilet is a Roca Victoria-05. I was trying to repair the bulb socket at the ceiling of the toilet. I stepped down from height, putting my right foot on the edge of the Roca toilet seat (covered), and it cracked into 4 pcs, with sharp edges. It's lucky that I DID NOT put my foot on the center of the toilet cover, or my lower leg's flesh would be shaved! -- @~@ Might, Courage, Vision, SINCERITY. / v \ Simplicity is Beauty!

Because you bought a cheap piece of **** plastic toilet seat. The
GOOD ones are made out of wood. OK. How thick is a good wooden seat? -- @~@ Might, Courage, Vision, SINCERITY. / v \ Simplicity is Beauty!

Then there is no such thing as safety. Because "common sense" is an oxymoron, such as "military intelligence" or "good job". |
