liquorice responded to a discussion called Do toilet seat covers provide any real protection? in questions & answers.

People panic so much about toilet seats and STDs, but in reality the chances of catching much at all from a toilet seat is very very slim. Germs don't live very long, and most people don't put the necessary parts on the seat anyway that the germs to come into contact with, in order for these diseases to be transmitted. I was looking for proof on the internet, and there is plenty. One example is...

Great idea! I won't steal it from you, but if your grandson every makes his invention I'd love to know how to get hold of it. This house could sure do with using the noise in a useful way.[em]thumbup[/em] He sounds like a very clever boy, and I'm sure he'll be a great inventor one day!

A very good point. I'd never really thought about that before; how if myLot allowed referral links, that's all we'd see! It's much better to have proper discussions here. I'm not a member of any other discussion forum, so I don't know what they're like but I'm very happy here at myLot, and have always suspected that the others probably aren't so good![em]happy[/em] That other site just sounds d...

liquorice responded to a discussion called public or wait until you go home? in people.
5 hours ago
I have no problems with public toilets. Of course I wash my hands and try not to touch too much there, but luckily most toilets around here aren't too bad. I do have a problem with having to hold things in until I get home. I'd be far too uncomfortable to do that. If you need to go, then you should. It's bad for you to wait. (As I'm forever telling my four year-old!)

Po is my favourite. I don't like Dipsy or La-La, mainly because I can never remember which is which (which one's yellow and which one's green, who knows?!) and so there is nothing too special about either of them. I quite like Tinky Winky because he's a good strong purple colour, and he carries a handbag, which caused a lot of amusing controversy. He is asserting his individuality which is ...

We have a room just like that too!! It's also our spare room, but it doesn't have a bed in there, there's no room, what with all the junk.[em]rolleyes[/em][em]blink[/em] It is very useful but it's getting fuller and fuller, not sure what we're going to do with it. We're not very good at this decluttering lark, there's always so many better things to do with our time.. So I'm afraid I can't help...

Yes, it's happened to me a few times when I've been in a hurry. Usually I realise by the layout of the room (like if there were urinals in there), but a couple of times I hadn't realised until after I'd used the toilet. I don't think it's really a big deal. If people realise that you did it accidentally then I don't think they would mind in most cases. When I studied in France there were mixed ...

It might be worth a try!(I know this is OT, but your avatar photo really reminds me of somebody who I know here in the UK. It's a very nice photo, but a really strange thing!!)

Yes, maybe! I've come across a few 'twins' for people over the years. And someone once told me that I've also got a twin somewhere. Maybe it's true. It's a funny thought!

I like your one item a day approach. Sounds far less scary than tackling the whole thing head-on!
