I also know that a lot are designed so badly that if they stall for more than a couple of seconds, they burn out. This includes an £80 strimmer I bought (so not cheap ****). I just sent it back and got it replaced, happy in the knowledge that either the shop or the manufacturer was out of pocket.

I also know it's very easy to add a soft start circuit to prevent the old dear being lurched form 0mph to a massive great 2mph walking speed, which wouldn't actually be dangerous at all, but some over-zealous health and softy legislation might think so.

We bought a house about 15 years ago that has 2 bedrooms and a bathroom
upstairs. The master bedroom and bathroom is on the first floor. So is
the washing machine. Now that we are in our 70's it was a wise decision
to have everything we need on the first floor. We did remodle the
bathroom before moving in. Best decision for us was to replace the
bathtub with just a walk in shower. We only have to step up about 3
inches to get into the shower. We also had a grab bar put in that is
screwed into the studs to hold on to. There is a tub upstairs if we want
it, but have not used it very much.

I never did understand why people would build a house with all the
bedrooms upstairs. Fine maybe for the younger, but not the older.

Er, in UK English the 'first floor' *is* upstairs! :-)

Most houses have a 'ground floor' and a 'first floor' in the UK. Yes,
I know it's not very logical but that's the way it is.

No, that's the snobby way. Anybody with any common sense starts counting at 1, not 0. Why blindly follow the blind? Your "ground floor" has a floor. Therefore it's the first one you come to. It's not the ground. It's not covered in earth. It's a floor like any other.

And before you ask, I'm in the UK, and hate most Americanisms, but this one is sensible.

That's why we bought a house 7 years ago that was single level and on a
level block. But then, I have always lived in single level houses.
Detest stairs with a passion. They seem to get steeper as one gets older.

Not a lot of point apart form due to a shortage of land. Also annoying to have your neighbour being able to see into your garden. And if there's more than one person living in the house, whoever is upstairs can be heard tramping along the floor.

Because the bedrooms are the least accessed room. Makes sense to put kitchen, lounge, bathroom downstairs to reduce the number of times you go up and down the stairs.

Another typical retarded "conversation" between Birdbrain and senile Rodent:

Senile Rodent: " Did you ever dig a hole to bury your own ****?"

Birdbrain: "I do if there's no flush toilet around."

Senile Rodent: "Yeah, I prefer camping like that, off by myself with
no dunnys around and have always buried the ****."

troll-feeding, senile idiot, blathered:


Just like someone in the Federal Government stated when it came to the
medicare insurance. They said the people could look it up on the
internet. I bet half of the ones on medicare don't have the internet,
or if they do would never find the information.

Interesting idiotic senile "discussion", troll-feeding senile asshole! tsk

So you've never had an erection?

Impossible for him to get an erection, he doesn't have a dick.

Then the appropriate word would be "she". Please learn basic English.

Mea culpa, the word I should have used is *it* since you've obviously
been castrated.

If you get your dick removed, you're now female.

Nope, just dickless. You arent female until you have a **** and tits.

What would you call a flat chested woman?

I imagine economics comes into play also. I small motor geared down is
cheaper than a larger, more powerful motor.

And are almost certainly designed by those who don't have
an incontinence problem and who don't realise the problem
that slow stair lifts can be for those who are incontinent.

Or maybe they realise that anyone with an incontence
problem would have something to **** in which isnt upstairs.

It's not just toilets. Imagine you're an infirm person upstairs. The
doorbell rings. You take quite a few minutes to get there, by which
time
they've left. Now you've missed your parcel and are expected to go
collect it from the post office.

Anyone with even half a clue in that situation would have a
smart doorbell which allows you to talk to the person who
has pressed the doorbell or knocked on the door using
your phone. And that works when you are in the garden
etc too and when you arent even home and need to tell\
them where to leave it so it doesn't get stolen etc.

There are plenty old folk who don't even have a mobile phone,

No reason why they cant get one when they need to do something
like that when they are no longer as mobile as they used to be.

let alone a smartphone, or know how to do fancy **** like that.

Trivial to learn how to with the best designs. It
rings like a phone call with a different ring tone.

My next door neighbour doesn't even have an internet connection!

Don't need one for that.

You really do live in a world of your own.

Nope, lots of them sold now.

The best of them like the arlos even work out if its a

A titless woman.

The other two things that annoy me are "next wednesday" and 6/8/2020.
Both can apparently be ambiguous, but I always use the logical one.

I almost always use "next Wednesday" fro the next day (after today)
that's a Wednesday, but have heard it for the Wednesday after that so if
it's important I would try to add additional information like: next
Wednesday (the 10th).

"6/8/2020" is less ambiguous that "6/8/20" (where 20 could be a day). I
try to use the month abbreviation (Jun) and all 4 digits for the year.
Either "Jun 6 2020" or "6 Jun 2020" could be read unambiguously. The
little-endian form (6 Jun 2020) seems a little more readable since
there's better separation between the numerals.

I never did understand why people would build a house with all the

Because the bedrooms are the least accessed room.* Makes sense to put
kitchen, lounge, bathroom downstairs to reduce the number of times you
go up and down the stairs.

You need bathrooms on both levels.

Not everyone loves technology like you.

But those with a clue who find that the stairlift is too slow
when they are upstairs and someone rings the doorbell
may well find it useful when someone suggests it.

When they get old they can't be bothered with all that ****.

That's bull****. When my dad's second wife ended up with
severe emphysema, he got one of the first big multi box
mobile phones in the car so she could call him if she had
a problem when he was out and about in the car.

Then after she had died, and he had moved into a big
retirement village, he got a small modern mobile phone
so he could call someone if he had a fall when out walking.

And that village had a full licensed on site restaurant which
had specials for the residents that they delivered in golf carts.
When I showed up after he had stormed out of the hospital
after a fall, there was a massive stack of the orders he had
done most weeks for those specials. He filled out the order
on his mac, printed it out and faxed it to the restaurant.
That was when he was in his 80s

let alone a smartphone, or know how to do fancy **** like that.

Just a lot close than downstairs, stupid.

Plenty of them do. My back neighbour who I used to provide
free internet for has just added her own broadband and she
is in her 70s, So have all the older garage salers.

They can't even tune their TV FFS.

Sure, buy that's a different issue to having a mobile or internet,

ALL if the old people I know do except for one and his wife does.

You really do live in a world of your own.

Nope, lots of them sold now.

Plenty are to old people.

The best of them like the arlos even work out if its a

You are free to do that without having to fart around with the stairlift.
