Have you ever been completely flummoxed in some modern bathrooms?
Contraptions and knobs abound which one is just meant to know how to use without the assistance of instruction leaflets or manuals.
Toilets that suddenly flush whilst midstream. Be warned, take it from me, do not lean back and give it your all unless you have a towel in your handbag.
The simple task of trying to wash your hands can be exasperating especially when you are meant to be rushing off to board a plane.
How to turn taps on or off can become a complete anxiety filled mission.
Everything is so high tech these days and more often than not I have had to assist an elderly person completely befuddled in a modern bathroom.
A gentleman in a lovely suit bent down to drink water out of a tap not so long ago and the automated soap dispenser above his head squirted a dollop of foam onto his hair. He rubbed his head wondering what it was and the combination of water on his hands and the soap on his hair caused a huge soapy foamy lather.
Planes to catch and places to go and gents in business suits washing hair in public toilets. Tut, tut, whatever next?
Oh for the simple things in life. Sigh...
